Ahoy: One of the best updates done on my 84 P40 was
to cut out the stb storage locker. After we cut it out, we glassed a lip onto
the insert and ground the area under the lid to match the new insert. Sounds
like a big project but in reality it was not too big a job. Less than a thousand
dollars and made a big difference in access to work near the transom and
steering gear. Pics available.
