Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Move center console 17' Montauk

I'm thinking about moving my original center console on my 1977 Montauk all the way to the starboard side of the boat. I fish a lot and am not as spry as I used to be so doubling the space to move around the boat would be a real plus.
Has anyone here done this modification and what are the pluses and minuses? The only issue I foresee is the steering cable but I think I can overcome that issue by simply changing the position of the steering box so it matches the new angle due to the console being moved.
What say you guys?
Thanks for your thoughts!
Dan.
