    The layout is horrible on the 34 and 41c. Slane Marine used to have a mold and modified a lot of 41c.

    Tom still hangs out at his shop once in a while. Brodus Rose at cape lookout windows bought a lot of Toms molds you may like to contact him.

    I was going to buy the 41 bridge mold last year, but Tom said it was scrapped a few years ago.

    The small depth of modern lcd/led electronics opens up a lot of possibilities when designing a new console.
    There's been a lot of bridges from older Hatteras' that have been cut adding a piece to increase width also lengthened.
    Does anyone know if Slane's aft bumper rail went down to Brodus?

    That's a slane bridge. He made the mold by taking the original bridge and widening it slightly, removing the pod, and extended the sides aft a tiny bit for the windsheild.

    From looking at lots of pics (but never in person), I think bridge was widened to go to the "drop offs" on the top (not sure what they are called).



    Since the topic of electronics came up. I'd like to add some new stuff to my existing bridge, but I feel a multi-function display over head is just awkward (and I'm short, lol). Radios overhead seem fine, but I think these new fancy screens need to be down low or in front of the wheel. INPUT?

    I occasionally run a budddy's Viking 44 with the display overhead. Mine is slightly below, to the right, and in front of the wheel. I'd take mine anytime.
