Contact ViciousOne on here. Sparky has been around the Awesome's enough to know what's needed and can easily improve on the design I'm sure. For those of you that don't know Vicious Marine out of Harrison twp they build a 32' cat and have years of experience from Ocean Express. Not to mention there's always an Awesome or two coming in for work. Anyways great guy/company. Figured this might help as i notice a lot of you are from Michigan.

Doors
 
Are the doors worth having or just a waiste of time.

Do they make the opening smaller ?

Im thinking of getting leather with snaps made or would they look stupid ?

I am repainting the boat next spring,
Does anyone know which is the best paint.
Dont care about the paint cost, I have a guys that will paint for free & he is very good.

Im painting the deck & sides, but not the bottom.
The boat sits in the water for about a month at a time & I am worried about it peeling.
Thanks to all,
Jeff

Any help with good paint.

IMHO the doors are needed. They really don't make the opening that much smaller. A fabric type of door with snaps would be a total pain in the azz. On the paint side, Mitch Tolan did all of the factory Awesome paint jobs, so he may help on paint issues.
I would really, really, really recommend you haul your boat done to Harrison Township--Visious Marine and see Sparky. As fantastixvoyage said, he has a ton of experience getting things done right on the Awesome hull. If you are serious about your project, take the time and do it right----with the right people.

paint
 
rotax454.

Thanks for your help.
I agree in putting back the original doors.
As long as they dont rattle, I hate rattles:D

As for paint, not sure what to do ?
I have a buddy in Montreal that paints the planes for Air Canada & he has done a few boats, but just not sure in the paint type.
I will freak if it peels after:(

He is a very good painter, Is there a difference in painting boats.
Im looking at painting all red, except the bottom,
Top & sides only.
After adding graphics.

I agree, I only want to do it one time & it better be good.
What you think.

Thanks guys,
I will add pics soon, love the boat with 3 outboards.
