Anybody know where you can get something like this. Here in the USA?
And doesn't cost 3 arms and two legs?

Overtons?
I looked at Overtons as well as about any other big chain marine store
and still didn't see what I'd like, so I guess it's plywood and
carpet. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
Dock boxes...lots of different sizes...here's just one supplier

Thanks Harry, but the dock boxes are way to big for the inside of my
boat. I was looking for boxes to hold a seat on top and possible a
cooler/ storage inside. that company in Australia makes some pretty
good looking stuff that is designed well, but I haven't sen much of
anyone who distributes their products in the US or a competitor that
makes those items here. I'm sure their out there, but I haven't found
them yet. and I've noticed on some other forums where people are
complain of the same search as well. So, it looks that we'll have to
make our own.
Nice thought though.
reply:
The aluminum jet boats use aluminum boxes. Unfortunately they are about
$400. You could ask your local sheet metal shop what they would charge to
bend the sheet and make one. Also, how about using a heavy duty cooler box.

Good ideas Bill, and taking all into consideration, but I think I'm
still leaning this direction minus the sharp edges, of course!

22 1/2 degree miters would look nice. And you'll be surpr4ised how much
softer those corners would look.
Too complicated and they would be covered with carpet anyway. I would
still just knock down a nice quarter round with an electric planer, or
belt sander with 36 grit. You could even do it with a good rasp in about
ten minutes
On the second thought, the 22.5 angles would look nice and could be done
quickly with a skill saw, wasn't thinking of that. Sorry...
You're forgiven.
Well, I would still knock them down some with the belt sander and round
it...
But, you are the mighty box figger er out er....
