So when i purchased my boat i did notice that it had a pretty good split in the glass on the starboard side rear of the center console.. perhaps somebody banged into i duno. Everything else is fine on the center console except that side, the side door doesnt close etc. This model has the tilt forward console. I was wondering if its even feasible to replace the entire center console ? Should i attempt to have it fixed ? Could i replace it with a more updated console or would that all be a waste of money. Thanks so much for responding.

It is likely repairable.
The trick is to either do it yourself, or find someone who loves Whalers enough to repair it for a reasonable fee. I was quoted $1500 to repair my console, which had some excess cut outs for electronics in it. I completed the repair myself for about $300, but it took a lot of time.
