Cracked Steering Console
2 Attachment(s)
Hi guys,
My steering console has a crack in it. It was like this when I bought the boat. It doesn't affect the steering or performance of the boat, but it is something I would like to repair. Has anyone experienced or seen this? Does anyone have any tips as how to repair this? My plan was to buy an epoxy mix and patch it back together. I am assuming someone pulled way to hard on the steering column at some point. Danny |

Hi Mariah 350,
So you think this is a stress crack from the boat itself, or from someone pulling on the steering wheel? My walk through windshield needs a little coaxing to get closed as well. I need to spread the windshield a little bit. There seems to be some misalignment there. Other than that the boat seems solid. I'm just not getting that solid feeling driving the boat like you would in a Lexus. Do you know what I mean? It seems flimsy. Danny |

Your best bet is to take it to a fiberglass repair shop and see what they can do. They'll know how to repair it properly, so it doesn't lose any structural integrity, and it'll last longer.
I don't think epoxy would be a good remedy, even though it seems like an easy fix. |

This crack is not a fiberglass repair. The dash is constructed of plastic and a type of thin vinyl overlay on top. I am still contemplating on how to fix this issue. Take Care |
