Here are some pics of the fish boxes I had made for my 31 open. Dave at the Boat shop does a great job. The color matches perfect! These were just made in September 2023. He is working on making a set of molds for the 29 open.

Anyone else have "a guy" that will make the boxes?
Thanks,

I tried the phone number in the first post. Disconnected.
The following phone # 616- I've left numerous messages, no reply. Has anyone else had any luck?
Thanks,
This is the number I used I just got mine from him. He didn’t return my phone call right away, but he did return it. You can also text him at that number as well.

The number in the first post is disconnected. I had to research to find this one.
I just sent him a text letting him know you’ve been trying to get in touch with him.

Do these fish boxes interfere with the hatch latches?
I re installed our small fish box for a few years and had to eliminate one latch due to me not wanting to chop holes in the box

Yes, they do interfere with the hatch latch. You will have to notch out the box in order for it to function correctly or do just like you did and remove the bottom part of the latch that goes into the notch. The ones from the factory already have the notch in the box. Hope this helps.
