This is a great picture of inbetween's boat. Their lauch day was this past Saturday, unfortunately not without problems. Adam/Beth, the boat looks awesome and you both should be proud!

Thanks for the picture! Although some things did not go well, we had a blast Saturday. Glad to be in our own boat even if it was only a couple of miles. Beth and I would like to thank everyone who waited for us while we were working out some electrical problems. It was a wonderful sight to see the group of boats when we finally hit the lake.These people, even some we don't know, are a great bunch we're proud to call friends. Hope to be back on the water next weekend.

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She looks great guys! I love the Inst panel (very up-dated) and the removal of the windows looks sweet. Makes me think it's a Donzi!

Very Nice !

first off the boat looks great!!! second, i love the fairing instead of the windshield. i want to do something of the same with my 312. i went back to the first page and read this...(The wood is the basic shape that is underbuilt. The wood will be prepped with a mold release, a layer of cloth, layer of 1/2" balsa with 2 more layers of cloth on the outside. Inside will be the same except I'm only laying 1 layer of cloth vs 2. Once that is all laid up and everything is finished off, I wil bond the windscreen to the gunnel and across the bow with plexus.) i'm a little confused can you re-explain how you did this? maybe i'm not awake enough yet, if so i'm sorry.

I'll have Rob explain how he did this marin. He's returning from NC tonight but I'll let him know you'd like to know how he did this.

The windscreen really updates the look of the boat.

Can you post a close up of your engine compartment vents? I'd like to update mine from the chrome louvered ones. I think they look dated. Did you buy something and fit them in or were they custom made?
