mvd,Can you post an drawing or building plan? And a list of materials.
It's going to be different from one model to another so you can't just follow exactly what I did. Plus, there's really not a whole lot to it. It's pretty straight forward but you've got to pay attention to the details. Such as, on my boat, I could not just mount the hinges to the gelcoat as that would not allow the board to open straight up. So I had to cut a strip of the starboard and use it as a spacer. You have to consider things like that as you contemplate the installation.
My suggestion is to visit a Supra dealer and look at one of the boats that has this feature from the factory. Take pics of everything so that you have a reference point.
As far as materials, here's a rough list:
- 1/2" King Starboard or Seaboard material. Do a search and ask them who their local distributors are. You can also use other materials but I wanted to stay away from wood. I got lucky and found local place that had a scrap piece about the size I wanted and they gave me a good deal.
- struts - got them from the dealer. They can look it up for you.
- hinges - same as the struts.
- brackets for the struts - Overton's.
- rubber mat - rubbercal.com, "Elephant Bark" product, 1/4"
- stainless steel hardware - Home Depot
That's about it. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions along the way.
