No Mange, we went to a local place and had stencils made. We copied the CC logo from the web and they were able to enlarge it from there. We also have stencils that say Stinger 312 and we put them on last night. Looks really good!! I'll try and remember to take the camera tonight and get some pictures of it.

We have fine line on the bow for the flames and we'll be painting those tonight. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Thanks JoMama! Take a ride and check it out this weekend if you have time. We'll be there Friday and Sunday for certain. Rob has to work Saturday so I'm not sure if we'll be around or not. Eddie's place is easy to find. The pictures do the color no justice.

Re: Winter Project Progress

At least Mange keeps me honest in posting pictures....

Rob worked Friday and Saturday so we were unable to work on it until Sunday. We finished basing the boat. All touch ups, bow, windshield, etc. We start clearing tonight and tomorrow and then buffing/sanding on Thursday.

Here's how the bow came out. We're really happy with it.

Re: Winter Project Progress

The windshield is dark purple. Take a close look at this shot and you'll see the start of a Chris Craft logo. We ended up shooting this in dark blue, airbrushed in black. It will be very visible in the sun and when it hits light a certain way, but we didn't want it standing out too much. Came out really good.

Re: Winter Project Progress

we need to do a "Stinger Fest" this summer and get these stingers together in one place on Lake Erie.
I know a guy with a 312, and then there is glassdave with his 260Scorpion. And my 260Stinger.

People would be very surprised at how good they all look.
