Out of the Mold- Im blown away!

First shots out of the mold. (Thanks Shauna)

Well here it is coming along quite nicely. Jeff (as usual) did an awesome job with the gelcoat. Thanks again to Quent for the basic layout and not thumping me for pirating it!

I'm beyond stoked!

Congratulations Uncle Dave:

What a beautiful boat I love the colors and the design. You are going to be a very happy boater real soon as the itch to splash it in the water will be overwhelming.

Once again congrats on the new addition to your family.

Keep the photos coming of the build it is your time to shine so share the photos as things progress.

New Picts-

Thanks Quent! Glad to share the ride with all interested.
Ive got a few friends living vicariously through this purchase.

Went to the shop on Saturday to discuss the electrical equipment engines supposed to arrive next week, and I have to lock down on interior colors and seating ASAP.

On top of all the normal Lavey stuff, add the Imor 700, and teague platinum, then add the ITS and heres the xtras-

Rather than piecemeal it over 10 years I decided its really cheaper to do it all now. "Cheaper" is a really relevant term however.

EMI Shifter , Livorsi Sea Strainer, Livorsi Gauges, Pull up LED Transom Light ,Isotta Steering Wheel , CMI Exhaust Tips, Teague Billet Drive Oil Housing, w/Teague Billet Trim Pump, w/Trim Pump Mount and Cap , 2150 Billet Battery Boxes, (2) 2150 Batteries, Faruno Removable Tower, Furuno radar/plotter (2) Extra Pop-up Cleats w/Bezels, Ocean Led Amphibians A6 Super Underwater Blue Transom Light, Onboard LED Interior Lights (20)
Stereo Upgrade w/(2) Subs, (8) Speakers, (2) 6 Channel Amps, (2) 10" Screens, Stereo Remote, Bulkhead Mods. for Subs and TV Screens, Upgraded Head Unit w/DVD, Air Conditioner MES 2500 Parts - Pump and Lines/ Transom Trim Black Molding w/SS Insert

Ok now as Ive been accused of in other threads -
Ive moved beyond function and into serious "bling".

Its my experience that the quality of components greatly effects the overall experience in dirt street, water, camp, house etc the good stuff matters .... besides that's just how I roll.......

Still trying to figure out where to put the gauges around the plotter......

More to come.....
