This is cool. When I was 7 I was there when they filmed that scene down in Plaquimines Parish which is south of New Orleans, LA. My aunt and uncle lived near the marina and canal where this was filmed. This set a great impression on a 7 yr old boy who is now 43 and totally obsessed with boats today. I have rebuilt seaveral bass boats and own Three boats right now. I had a friend who had the exact set up they used in the movie. We had a lot of fun in that boat. Too bad I live too far to help because I would in a heartbeat. Have fun and good luck.

Hello are you putting the steering wheel in the center too? My uncle owned the original boat used in the movie from 1983 - 1996 when he sold it to the ian flemming founation. Its was in my back yard for years and I would play in it pretending to be Bond, good times
