why don't they do the rigging before paint? seems like a really expensive paint job, and I know these guys are good, but accidents happen! LOL! I am just surprised they don't do some sort of mock up and get most of the holes punched in the transom before paint. Was it just a scheduling thing with the painter maybe?

I like that #6 template Bobby is using for the layout. Is that something thats available or would that be a custom made piece. I have the Merc Bravo jig but always thought it was not inherently precise enough and thought a registered plate like the one he's using would be much better. Even though its a 6 plate, just wondered if there out there somewhere. Keep up the great work, should be another impressive build.

Hey Bob, what's happening! You think we'll see the Velocity this summer?
I guess that was up to the owner to race or pace and I don't think the boat was specced out for any of the classes. Besides, I think it did a better job selling new boats over at the Poker Run docks. ;-)

We were very impressed with the Ilmors and the performance combined with the weight savings helped make our choice for this build. This boat has very specific Art and Color flows, Ilmor also custom painted everything. Great group of People.
