1976/77 13' Whaler Sport, just bought a new mahogany set through Specialty Marine. I have reached out to Specialty since the console appears to not fit as expected but haven't got a response - wondering if anyone has come across a similar issue.

The console (a tad larger than original specs) won't sit flush on the riser without being completely off the mounting block attached to the deck. (see picture http://bit.ly/1vSrDbr)

The last console I had on their was a custom piece and I'd like to restore back to original luster - question is: Should the console attach to the riser (which I assumed, considering the fasteners included)? Could I possibly have a console which is just not compatible with my model (HIN was lost - 6 pin Stencil is 2B6433)?

Thanks,
Mike
