I do not recommend Specialty Marine wood products. I have seen a less than 5 year old Specialty Marine console with split wood on the console top and the windshield. The wood split because of inferior wood-glue process and a non-OE design of the console. Specialty sells a console for the Nauset/Sakonnet/Eastport model that is designed using wood pieces on the console top front and sides; not mahogany plywood panels. The windshield frame is also glued together pieces of wood, not solid wood. I have photographs of the Specialty Marine defective console.
