315 is in New York. So maybe we with winter we'll see some sled resto's or hop ups.

Speaking of which, we have some ice starting to form. Time to get our solid water machines ready.

I hope he posts about the new projects, and detailed pics, lets see if he learned anything and get the respect he's asking for, I know the paint on the Cafe is not right as far as prep and all that, I know what it takes, I was painting before he was born....there is plenty that was "hurry up" on that paint job.....

I really hope if he is doing "customer" boats the prep and sanding is done better, I am done beating up on him for the Cafe, lets see what these guns look and if he wants to get the respect he should post as many pics as possible and show prepping and all that, I saw lots of flaking last time that showed lack of prep.

That being said, Phil...post up these guns lets see what you learned.... start to finish, I wont bash ya, but if there is hackwork I would voice it... "Show us what you got"

everyone on here makes detailed customized paint work sound easy. honestly there are only a handful of people in the country who have the artistic ability to do it. seriously based on 315's notebook drawings, the kid can't even draw. all the pro's I've seen with sick airbrush and custom graphic skills are insane at drawing. it's one thing to paint a boat a solid color or add some stripes. It's a whole other to do ghost graphics, carbon fiber weave, smoke, graphics, shadowing, etc. as I mentioned earlier, I had a guy do the deck of my boat who was insane. anyone can pm me for pictures. I don't have my hopes up, especially based on what I have seen done.
