i retro fitted a plinth between winscreen and roof that i am very pleased with but a word of warning it alters your canopy fit, by lifting the windscreen by 100 mm,it would be interesting to know when the makers first fitted them ,atky off Maestro

First of all welcome, Atky.
I never knew that the Nauticus had a plinth on the original build.
I have often thought the canopy could do with being a little higher.

Do you have any photographs?

Hi Atky..Meastro was my old nauticus :' I had her 5+ years. At the time she had a 2.2 peugot deisel engine which was out the boat more than it was in ( hahaha) I was sorry to sell her at the time, but now replaced her with Wyvern (see gallery) Maestro was one of the early boats and didn't have a plinth, I'd appreciate the pics you have to see what she looks like now. I remember whenever I cruised thru tunnels what a pain it was to have to remove the screen completely and lay it across the back seat. Its some weight isn't it.lol. Does it still have the "widened" toilet compartment ?
