I always liked that wrap but man that paint is gonna look sweet. Looks like rail is gone is last pic. Cool project.

Yeah the wrap was sweet, but it had 5 years on it and I was getting sick of all the yellow :lolhit:

Tank and I were talking earlier about why stop now, take all the rails off and powder coat them charcoal, so that's what happening, you were right, no rails in the last pic...Phil already had them all off, swim platform is next

Yeah 16 years old, needed some TLC, mechanically solid, but showing her age. Hopefully going to be able to freshen the motors and drives over the winter, then interior next year and she'll be good as new! Wish I could just have Phil do it all right now, but no such luck...anyways, it is a fun project. Thanks for the comments.

Redo and budget are not to be used in the same sentence when it comes to a cigarette. For example, you decide to replace the cup holders then the grab rails look worn...that all leads to a new interior. Then the bilge looks dated and as long as the motors are out might as well freshen them.....

I will say the windscreen is the single best upgrade available.

Going to be a very nice boat.

Looks great! It is wild what that guy can do with a cigarette, new or old. I'm gonna find me a TG to buy and send to Phil someday....Congrats on your updates. Again, looks good.

I did get the bill, yesterday :eek: Let's just say it was more than I originally planned :angry-smiley-038:

But I will also say that Phil really worked with me and my budget...again, can't say enough about him!
