"The Cigarette that OSO built": UNEDITED
 

I started a thread in the general discussion area...

...but thought I would save some of the detail for you guys.

There were more than a few times over the last 18 months that I asked myself why I didn't just take the insurance money and get a nice Cafe or older Ton Gun, but all in all it turned out pretty well I think. Definitely a learning experience to build an entire boat from scratch.

I was skeptical, but really like the Livorsi controls. Being able to trim the drive and tabs without taking your hand of the throttle has proven to be great.

Can't recommend Team Marine highly enough for panels.

Mrs. Damdonzi now can DJ a little easier and hold on a little easier now.

Got creative with some hatch logos off an F2 boat and incorporated them into new coaming pads.

Magnum digs the new stereo.

Upholstered up front, and made it sectional to convert the pieces between the front benches into one huge sunpad.

Moved the logo down below the rubrail to it's traditional location.

TAOD helped make some patriotic Mercury Racing stickers.

Perfect fit.

Last, but not least, the new canvas.

Can you guys think of anything I missed?

Man that is a great rebuild!

Glad that you decided to bring it back from the dead after some low life abused it.

Very unique piece.
