Default Had a blast!

Ron & Carrie did great work. Actually, it's fun watching them get so excited about working on their own boat.
A few minor "touch-ups" here n there, and it's gonna be like new.
A final wax job, and this boats gonna look sweet !!!

I'm impressed.

Nice Work!

If you drive that Baja as well as you do the gel work, you are super woman!

WOW!!! Great job guys!!!!!

If I had known that you were going classify the gel repair as "FUN" and not work, I would have raised the price, not lowered it.

Truly though, with doing work yourself on something and seeing the results, there is a sense of accomplishment and pride that can't be duplicated.

As for decals, keep checking ebay. Thats where I got the ones on the back corners. Also, any good sign shop can usually make anything that you can draw or have a picture of.
