The centercase is going to be the new home for my centerplate. The sides are made out of 1/2" marine plywood. (I laminated two layers of 1/4" plywood with epoxy.) The lumber is white oak, glued and screwed from the inside to the plywood. The slot in the centercase is 3/4" wide, plenty of room for the 5/16" thick centerplate.
The pic shows the centerplate and centercase side-by-side. In this pic, the centercase sides are glued up, but the sides are just temporarily screwed together. I'm going to take it apart and fiberglass the inside of it for more abrasion resistance, then put it back together with glue and install it in the boat.
