Removed the flip up table on the chrome ubar that is always in the way. Finally, easy in and out of cockpit, and can entertain in comfort! Seateak table added in same screw holes as the old drink rack, and clips and hooks hold table when not flipped up. Enjoy!
Cockpit table crowding resolved!

Nice! We did the same thing. 3rd best enhancement on the boat after Zarcor companionway doors and NYNE Vibe Bluetooth portable speakers.
Table is beautiful may I ask where you found it? I am curious about the purpose of the black knob which looks like it might interfere with putting a drink in the cup holder?
Ah. Yes. The wing nut hold the table firmly when "put up". It doesn't get in way of drinks when perpendicular. It's under the wood. There were several minor mods...

I reused the screw and nuts that held the old plastic cup holder. Mods to table we're to remove the trim edge on side of helm where shifter was so it would seat back farther and to cut slots in back to slide it onto the old cup holder metal base. All jig saw and drill. about 20 minutes of work.
