    Does anyone have drawings for a bench helm seat for a 53 or 58?

    Thinking of finding or having one made, just curious I know some of you have had them made.
    Maybe someone has drawings?

    If you are looking for something like this I can take some side and front shots with dimensions.

    Yes, I am wondering also if we can build a wall or put a high back on it, sort of like on the enclosed bridge extended deck models., so sort of. Some basic dimensions would be great!
    I found another post on here from about a year ago were someone had one for sale, they said they had it made for them. I saw a response to another post that someone on Kent Island makes them.
    I'm sort of interested in trying to make one, but I have little experience with wood. It could turn out to be a disaster. I am a machinist and could make anything out of metal / have cnc mills etc. in my machine shop but wood is a different animal. It might keep me from loosing my mind waiting for spring and the ice to thaw to move our new boat come spring though!

    I'm thinking make it so we can mount a tv on the back or incorporate it somehow too.
    I love to invent / create and have been designing with CAD programs for 25 plus years, so I can draw it. Not sure I can make it LOL.


    So if you don't mind some basic dimensions and pictures would be great!

    Don’t put in a wall, one of the best things about a 53 MY is the great visibility aft from the lower helm.

    Good point, something a newbee like me is quick to overlook.
    The whole wall thing would come with complications too I am sure.

    I would like those dimensions also if you would. Wanting a better spot for my T.V. is probably the tipping point of me building one.
