For the amount you use a bridge really not worth it and then you need more steering helms and controls and such to pair with it all gets rather expensive...
There has got to be someone with a flybridge out-there since everyone has removed them, or are you guys secretly hanging onto them for your wife's but just don't want to admit it, LOL
I spent a lot of time $ getting a stand-up head for the wife and for the amount she comes on the boat it really wasn't worth it. https://nanaimo.craigslist.org/boa/d/nanaimo-houston-glasscraft-flybridge/6949539444.html Didn't even know you could get a 23 flybridge in any boat. Might be easier and cheaper in the long run to just buy it. With a diesel that is a pretty dam rare boat. Wish I had seen that two years ago, pre my 2 footitis that turned into 7.5itis. PS don't weight it if tow vehicle is an issue, I'd guess a flybridge would add 1000lbs?
Not a chance that flybridge weighs 1000# maybe 100-200 at most
Hey Kaelc, ya nice boat indeed, my issue is the engine, only a 130hp, great for puttering around but that can hardy get on plane with a few people.
I know and understand the “wife thing”, this boat will be on the Shuswaps with mother-in-law and who knows who else so need to make it comfortable... I’m not a die hard fisherman like many others so this needs to be dual purpose “all around” boat.
Thank you for you time and perspectives. I know it is good to discuss these things and bounce around ideas and opinions but at the end of the day I’m still just looking for a discarded Flybridge and accessories and since they are so disliked there must be a ton of them kicking around and like Casper there is no way it weights a 1000lbs, it can’t.
