Looks great. I made one almost identical. I stillMounted cutting board with Scotty push button quick releases if I need to take it off. Also it can flip up so I still have access to transom locker.

I did something similar to that for mounting my barbeque further out so it wouldn't drip grease on the boat and burn drunk peoples arms. Used the scotty mount the same way.Had this made by the guys down at Crest Sheet Metal. Got tired of putting strain on my back leaning out to try and keep the hali anchor system chain and anchor from damaging the side of the boat when lowering or retrieving the setup. Tried it out today for the first time and it worked perfect. No more back strain...bonus was it also was a great place to rest the open stainless crab trap to shake out the under size back into the water. This is mounted to my Scotty downrigger mount...so easily removed. I glued the thin rubber onto the upper section to keep the metal on metal noise to a minimum and glued a thin strip under the section that lays on top of the gunnel. The round bar welded to the bottom edge is there so the chain won't hang up on an otherwise sharp edge.
Great idea! Too bad it would end up in the shower on my boatThis is for Double Eagle owners.If you own a Double Eagle you know how impossible it is to get to the fuse panel under the dash.After doing my impression of a contortionist and hurting my back,I decided to move it to the other side of the bulkhead.The wiring harnesses were long enough and mine needed more room for fuses anyways so I did 2 panels that are all clearly marked and easy to get at now sitting in the cuddy.Should have been done this way from the start.Also removed the transom thru-hulls and redrilled and epoxied the wood before reinstalling.Good insurance against transom rot and should have been done from factory.View attachment 37873 View attachment 37874

Really nice work there! Very organized and pro lookingPut a Blue Seas ACR system in the DE last weekend after reading the thread on here.Not much space at the stern of a 16 footer but managed to get it all mounted with a 6 post 250 amp busbar for consoladating all my negative leads.
