You might also check around with some of the aluminum boat manufacturers, one of them may have an accessory side mount console. There is one on my ancient Lund. It just attaches to the side of the boat with a few bolts and would fit just about any aluminum boat. here

For attachment, take all your parts to a welder who is experienced in welding alum. BTDT. A weld, if done by a person competent in the process, will last as long as the boat even in the environment which a boat is subjected to. Then, if you are picky, get some touch up paint and touch up any burned off areas that may have been caused by the heat of the welding. I didn't have a problem with that. [links]

Mr. Tasha's daddy, man, you are a serious fisherman. Geez, I have never seen a downrigger/trolling setup like that. or is that for a tree top full of Crappie? Whichever, you apparently believe in getting after it. [links]
Assembly of the complete steering console system, including installation of a rotary steering control is an easy do-it-yourself project. You will need rotary steering system, 4 to 7' cable, and steering wheel. All of these are sold in any marine store and on-line. You will also need link control steering arm ($15 & up) specific to your outboard engine to accept a flex cable and to turn the engine right or left.
The Central Console will take riding comfort to the next level and will put you in a total control of your boat. It is similar to the difference between driving a car and riding a bicycle.

Unless you just want a project, it would be much easier and maybe cheaper to buy a boat like you want.
Lots of boats on Craigslist this time of year. more
I would start drawing it to scale, if you can't make it work on paper you probably can't build it either.

If space is at a premium, consider a side console. If visibility is a premium, then consider center console. [links]
