Yes it is Mike. You may want to watch the thread, you never know, you might want to see what boat it's gonna end up on????

Pretty excited about the top Mike. So far I have rigged it for great lakes fishing, barely. Soooo expensive to rig. Other plans are: rocket launcher, kicker motor, auto pilot, radar, etc.

Wow its hard to believe how that boat has progressed over the years from when i found it. When i bought this boat it was just neglected and not taken care of. And now look at it, being well cared for and is in a class of its own. Thats what these CSC's are all about. (Old Entourage that is)

Installed hydraulic steering in it also

Thank you guys for all the responses, I appreciate it. We are finishing the mold hopefully this Monday. I'll post pics. The teacher is actually a marine architect and engineer at a local yacht company so he's no stranger to latest and greatest. I am worried about the added weight of the foam because it holds alot of resin and the top is already pretty heavy.

I'll talk it over more with him and see where we end up. I want it to last, no question about that.............I may need to keep my boat sidelined and fish with Saugeye more often...so I don't want to hear about how crappy it is.

Pics to follow.
