Some detail pics of the swing around panel design.

Looks great! Thanks for sharing.
I guess the big trick is how to locate the hinge line
so they panel can swing around any framing for the companionway.

This on uses two features to do that.
First, the hinge spacer moves the hinge line away from the wall.
Then there is a recess that fits around the framing.

I looked at a lot of photos of how this was done on other boats.
Each boat is different, and the panel arrangements are all quite
different.
Just work out what will work on your boat and go for it!

Sounds good. I noticed your spacer arrangement and IIRC, mine is about 1 1/2
inches.
I was going to just mount my depth sounder (fish finder) but after seeing
your arrangement will also mount the compass.
Thanks again!


LOL, just don't hang a speaker near the compass.

Before I removed the speaker, you could "adjust" the compass
20 or 30 degrees just by tilting the speaker a bit.
