Thanks, that looks like a good way to go.  Although I might skip the cabinet for now....did you screw the teak in from the outside and plugged the holes???

I'm replacing my old Signet knot meter, that required a 5.5" square hole in the cockpit, with new instrumentation that only requires a 2" hole for installation.

Barring adding a new window to the cockpit.....I was wondering what the best way to cover up the original hole would be.  I have no expectations that it will look as good as new and plan to mount the new knot meter in its place, but it is smaller.

First thoughts was to cut a piece of spare lexan into the opening than cut a larger backing plate for the inside and secure it w/ 5200 - I'd like to avoid any new screws but me thinks the new instrument may not sit solidly in this layout......anyone have any good ideas.

Much appreciated, josh.
