oh and one other thing anyone know of way to make steering console and steering shaft i have the steering cables and rack please post some ideas or just quick drawings of this please

Good luck with your project!

I have a few questions? How big is your jon boat? Is there a plate on the boat that gives maximum weight capacity? You might be adding allot of weight with the decking/fiberglass stuff you want to do. Just be careful.
