28 winter project
 

i picked up this boat from long island in august, it needed 1 motor at the time, here it is on the way back from li to ga

got it back to ga and ordered up a new block pistons rods ect, while waiting on that to show up i removed the striping from the hull and deck, what a pain that was.

here it is stripe free.

I'm in the middle of a similar project myself, so I feel your pain and joy :drink:

Looks awesome! It's nice to see these winter projects!

great looking boat. Looks much better all white.

Great looking boat. You can not beat the 28's. I kinda like the blue interior but afraid it would get a little warm in the summertime.

Enjoy the boat, they are a blast!!

just finished up the led cockpit lights
