Remedy 2.0
 

As most know Remedy is getting some updates this year and just thought I'd start a makeover thread on this. I know this is gonna be a long first post but I wanted to recognize businesses and individuals that are that are working with me on this project. The graphics design is staying the same, but doing some tough ups and other small enhancements. All new upholstery is in the works now as well. I will be posting pics from the individuals that are assisting me with all the updates, when I get them. Eddie Young has got the 525's like new again along with some MDC Drive Guardians and new CMI Tails, Mike Tru is a local guy here who is great with bravo drives and got both of these new again with some upgraded internals and drive showers from Max Machine Worx, Thomas collision who did a killer job on repainting the XR uppers black and Imco lowers silver, Brett @ BBlades for prop work, Travis Powder Coating has been awesome with their work, Les @ Precision Paint Worx is getting the paint upgrades taken care of and new black rubrail, my go to guy for interior work Patrick Miniard @ MARS Custom Upholstery will be done very soon with all the cockpit interior, Pro Installz Mobile and Marine has some killer audio ready for install that is linked into the new Garmin 8610, Ellie @ Castaway Customs LOTO is working on the Sea Dek, Steve @ Innotech Products has got some great looking blue carbon dash panels made up, Alum Metal Fab is finishing up the custom swim platform, Performance Product Technologies were great to work with on new HP Transom assemblies, and also to give a shout out FP marine, CP Performance, Teague marine, for awesome deals on new Livorsi gauges/bezels, toggle switches, fittings and many other parts. This all kind of started out as kind of a small project and quickly went out of control. She's gonna look like new very soon. Here's 2 pics I have from some powder coating an old Latham Steering Reservoir to Merc blue and the K planes with a added touch. Many more pics will be added soon.

I have been kicking around the idea of painting my plates and drives silver.
Looks great.

Thank you. I thought I might as well powdercoat them while they were off to go with my drives. Black uppers and Silver lowers.

I got a few pics from my upholstery shop. Its all done but sent these just as a teaser. Its going to look great when its all assembled. The lighting where these were taken is kind of dim, so the pics are a little dark.

Looks good keep the pics coming. I have been updating my 2004 37 for the last few years so it's cool to see what guys are doing with these boats.

Thank you. I'll be adding some more pics of the interior tomorrow when I get it home from the shop. Hopefully I'll have some engine dyno video available very soon. I also should be getting some pics from Les at Precision Paintworx very soon as well.

Are you keeping the AC unit in the bathroom floor or did you have installed correctly?

All of that is gone. Took it all out and sold it. We would have never used it anyway. Same with the porta potti, it went in the trash. All the panels inside the head area are out and getting reupholstered now.

Nice! Thought it was a pretty odd setup.

Got a few pics back from Precision Paintworx after they got started sanding on the hull. After putting the guide coat on and sanding lots of fine cosmetic cracks in the gel showed up. No need to try to paint over that, so let the grinding begin.

I know some people like the look without a swim platform, but I like having supper cooked for me and not being in the dog house. The swim platform is the only thing my wife asked for in everything that's going on in this make over, so here it is. The top plate will bolt to the tabs on the frame and then it will be covered in sea dek. It'll be fitted up, so the holes can be drilled in the transom before it gets painted next week. After that we will get the holes drilled in the top plate and send both pieces off to powder coating.

Steve @ Innotech sent me a few pics of my new Blue Carbon Fiber dash panels. These are going to really good with all the new paint and gauges on the dash.

Nice. He does great work on the panels. If you look at his website you will see my dash from when we redesigned it in '13.

Yes sir, I saw yours on there when I was looking at the pics. He does great work and keeps in contact with you on the process. The only set back we had was that he has been moving locations, so that delayed my stuff just a little bit.

She's got a sexy looking bottom going on now...

Oh HELL YEAH!!!!

Looks great!
I have been kicking around the idea of painting my bottom black too. Maybe in a year of so.

I had it pictured in my head how it would look and really liked the idea. It was after talking to Jeff Hoefling and Stephen Miles that I was ready to go for it. Jeff's Fountain that Stephen did the black bottom on doesn't even have the first bunk mark on it. Stephen gave me the info on the paint and I sent it to Les@ Precision Paintworx. If you notice under the plastic there is no more white rub rail on there.. I've got some nice black rub rail from Taco metals going in its place, as well.

Really sets the boat off bud! Killer!

All the panels came in from Innotech today. Here's the Drive/Trim indicator panel I had I had made in blue carbon. Glad I gave Steve a call to get my panels done.

She's got some shine on the new black bottom now.. Love the depth and its not even finished yet.
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...acf35e887f.jpg

Heres some before and after shots. It looks like a mirror now, thank to Les@Precision Paintworx LOTO. I'm loving the black bottom now.

Looks great!

Looking good!

A few more pieces to the puzzle arrived today after a short 6 week or so wait. I'm ready to see what numbers the new style Whipple's are gonna make. The SCX uppers should be arriving in les than 2 weeks. I'm ready for some long nights to get her back together and get at least 1 or 2 runs in this year. We are hoping to make Lake Cumberland Poker Run if possible.https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...7bc85c5240.jpg

Finally got her back home from the paint work this week and looking like new again.https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...34ccb8a282.jpg
https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...f840017259.jpg

Got just a little of the dash reassembled. all new Livorsi gauges, trim rings, Lighted tip toggle switches and of course the new Innotech blue carbon panels.

Looks great! Did you paint the topside black? It looks gray/silver in other pics?

I think its the shop lights making the colors look different. I just had a few spots refinished on the deck and sides.. The transom, dash, deck hatches and bottom were the full paint areas.

I don’t know how I’ve missed this thread but I’m here now.

Better late than never. lol

Got the dash closer to being finished now. Also got started on the Seadek, but had to have a few pieces scanned again due to sizing problems. Side panels are in now to get all the audio upgrades taken care of this week and the new garmin will be installed as well. Its finally looking like a boat on the inside again.

Finally got the top plate for the swim platform frame fitted and all holes drilled / countersunk. I was going to have it welded on but decided to do a bolt on top in case I ever want to change the design for the top plate. Now its off to be powdercoated on Monday.

These pretty ladies are waiting patiently for some dyno time. I'm beyond ready to see what numbers they put down.

Can you say engine porn?!?….Chris, it looks like you’ve taken a 5 year upgrade plan and crammed it all into one summer! Super excited to see how Remedy looks and runs when shes finished!

What size whipples are those? Are they new 3.3L’s? They look great!

Trust me, after not being able to have her out this summer has got me super pumped for next year. Yeah, I had planned on just a few upgrades and that that went out the window really quickly. We rode with friends of ours that have whipples in their 32 sunsation and my wife was like we need these in ours. Long story short, I called eddie and they were literally getting ready to put the intakes back on the motors the day I had him order the new 3.8 whipples. I followed some advice and have the drive guardians along with new SCX drives. Should be pretty bullet proof now.

These are the new 3.8L whipples and thank you very much.

just rough numbers, what was the cost of scx uppers, and whipples?

I'll PM you on that one.
