2001 2860 Denali Helm specs

[Darnice]

I know this is a re-post from the Projects forum but I'm hoping someone here can help. It would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I'm new here and glad I found the forum. Name Steve.

I'm working on a winter project and I'm hoping someone here can help me with some Helm measurements
Im installing a new Raymarine Axiom, New VHF and some instruments.
What I need is the height and width of the Instrument panel to the left of the gauges. Unfortunately I can't measure mine as its in storage for the winter and the place is closed until spring.
I'm looking for the flat area height and width before it curves.
Attached is a picture of the helm and the measurements I need.

While I do not own this boat, I did pull the photo into photo software and then I scaled up the image until the screen on your gps was 3.6x6 which are dimensions I found online. I then measured the size of the dash. It showed 18 x9.5" which is the size of the green rectangle. This is obviously not exact and dependent on the photo being take straight on, but it should get you pretty darn close. Hope this helps

That's what I did too from the pic. But the dash leans back and it's throwing off the measurements. It's a great idea though, thanks

Last fall before it was put in storage I measured 19 1/8 by 10 but I'm not sure if I made a mistake writing it down. Old age. Lol

I guess I could make it 18 x 9.5 and I know it would fit. It's a new top that the instruments will mount in as the cutouts can't be covered by the new stuff.

Thanks again!
