Bill, Who is making the new switchplates? Nice job. I have a local buddy that does them for me. I'm going to have him make my switch panel on the bottom of my dash if he can do a different font.

I am not sure who is doing the switch plate's John, it might be the same guy you use? Im hoping they deliver the boat this weekend. I have alot of work left and want to get it back, as busy as I am right now Im worried I wont be able to get it finished before summer, I might have to buy something else till this old resin bucket is done, maybe a Active Thunder, or I will just get another Donzi ZR for this summer

It really looks great. It is a lot of work to retore and revamp a boat.

We are repainting the upper half of ours beginning this afternoon.

Trannies were sent to TNT today and will have them back at the end of the month. Next month is all about putting things back together and dropping her in the water Memorial Day weekend (if it's nice).

Keep up the good work.

Because my husband starts boat projects in November and says this and that will only take this amount of time, and in 5 years I've learned to add 6 weeks on top of that!

Last year was the first time we had the boat in the water on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend. It's usually the 2nd weekend of June. I felt like we boated so much more last year! It helped that we had a dry, hot summer.

Honestly, most of our friends in our area are not in the water until the 2nd or 3rd weekend of May.

Forgot it right now. Ice still floating in when the winds are coming out of the NE.
