Mac 19 wheel steering

Got one of the last Evinrude 40 hp, luckily I had a small console that fit laying around. (Consoles this size are getting harder to find.)

It runs like a dream and had no problem getting up on plane with my wife and two college age daughters on board. A long 1x8" across the back works as my helm seat. I made a small platform with 2x4"s and a piece of plywood for a foot rest. I can stand up while running comfortably and It doesn't affect the self bailing drainage.

While this mod made my :mac19: pretty awesome. I would still love a :tat22: if it ever gets made.
