If you are going to raise the roof, cut the front off the cab and rake the windows forward
Like this maybe with a bit more forward slope

Do you know who I owe i beer to? There was this one thread… can’t remember by who. This gentleman took a 2 week trip up North and posted his experience , with his dog I think? Don’t know about the dog, but his story of hitting bad weather the whole trip and being anchored at night spinning round and round hoping his shackles don’t break,The sportfishing bc boat design. Your going to owe us all beer after this thing is done

I think you are talking about Sharphooks. He has written about a few of his adventures north.
NORTH COAST CRUSADE PART I
Crusade is a strong word, but my trip to North Coast this past month indeed felt like a crusade. Last summer was an arrow in my heart. Tied to a dock with a new-to-me boat, a pandemic wedged between me and my annual trip north to the Promised Land....a bitter pill to swallow for a guy who...

Yeah without dropping the deck it's not possible. I looked at doing it but the difference in height made the window usless and there was nowhere for a helm to go. Dropping the floor is a game changer.

This is another one of his expeditions
and this one
NORTH COAST EXPEDITION PART I
Back in early July I was fit to be tied—-I’d left my boat in Nanaimo after two trips to Barkley Sound and now, my local spring season had just started and I didn’t have access to my boat! I put up with that for a week then finally couldn’t take it anymore...throwing caution to the wind, I...

North Coast Expedition Part II
THE SCENERY Part of “pacing” yourself when biting off a chunk of time this long is knowing when to get off the water and do something else. Having a puppy to contend with makes that easier because she’ll drive you stark raving mad if you cheat her of her beach time. I spent a lot of time...

North Coast Expedition. Part III
THE FISHING....THE BAD An interesting month of fishing it was——I did fine on my way north but revisiting the same spots on the way south (once I had gone into non-C&R mode) was a sobering experience. Because I had used the spoon so hot and heavy I had some bait that was getting mushy and I...

North Coast Expedition
I approach chinook fishing in the salt chuck the way I approach steelhead fishing in rivers: It's more rewarding to me to catch 4 steelhead in 4 new spots then catch 10 in a spot that I might have to share with 30 of my BFF's, each in their own boat. With that in mind, this summer I...
