You are correct that Lane, and myself will be addressing the side pad designs tomorrow, after we set the motorlid in place.
Hmm my BAD oops. Tell Doug I did not mean to insult him!

Funny but that is what Mark Boos called me about, he has a buyer for them! The wife says if I sell them to move forward on the paint job.

Received this email from Dave last night. I have to say the communication has been amazing. They have helped me to feel like I was right there with daily updates and pictures.

Mark,

Look how we spaced the steering bottle forward so that the hose routing was better on the starboard engine. We thought it looked great.

Dave

Well there is always a set back but nothing major.

Mike McLeod had forgot that they had to trim the seat base on his buddies 36. Well we had Kevin Brown to do all the repairs and he had the base looking fantastic but Dave had to do a little trimming on it yesterday so the new rear bolster will fit.

This may set us back one week on the finished product depending on how busy Kevin is and how soon he can get the base finished out.

On one ever said it would be easy or cheap!

Nice job Dave you are handy with that saw brother.

The guys did a wonderful job of mounting the trim pumps up on the side but it is a very tight fit at the headers.

Here is one of the LED controllers.

Adam has tricked my ride with LED's. This controller hooks to the stereo system and they control four led light bars that dance with the music and have 10,000 colors. There are two in the engine compartment and two in the cockpit along with many other single led lights.

He has blue LED's mounted underneath the sun pad shooting down on the engines and white LED's shooting down on the blue items like the sea strainers.

Everything is connected to a common switch on the dash panel.

You can also see where the main water dump from the incooler exits.

Dock,
Fantastic project!!. Looks great. Cant wait to hear how it runs.

Love the attention to detail.
I have met Adam, Dave and Greg at the Ft Myers dealer meeting. They were great group of guys. I was there nosing around and all was good with them. I believe Adam gave me the ride in the Stock 35OL when I was lookign to buy.
