Holes in My Dash
Question
If I am replacing old equipment what will I do with the holes from the old equipment when you get done installing new Electronics?
Answer
We can make your console look great and have no holes. There are several techniques we use. To fit a new equipment unit in the location where old equipment was removed we will often install a pad of Starboard large enough to cover the old space and mount the new equipment on that pad. For consoles where multiple equipment units were removed we may recover the complete console face with Starboard and rearrange existing gauges and equipment that are to remain on the vessel, then mount the new equipment.
