Pictures look way better than actual condition. I am a little bit perfectionist true but it was time, boat showed its age, engines would not have made it no way. There is some pretty bad dock rash on the side approx 6' long that needed to be repaired, clear coat all peeled and worn off.
Interior, I tried cleaning just was not happening. I did not want to do things half azzed so I just decided to do whole thing right. Also I enjoy tearing the boat apart.

I like the blue better myself, it will look pisser on the water.

As for Gordon's gun, I have driven the boat, it is the real deal and it is fantastic. What an incredible piece of machinery.

This boat looks pretty nice to me and can't beat the price either would be a shame to part out.

I am not planning on painting this boat grey, I was just putting it up. I am liking the blue colors with new white interior and all new gauges and dash. Just trying to tie it all together is the difficult part.

Thanks for posting this yammi it is going to be a big help.

Yes super soft, my wife loves it, however it has worn places on it.. The guy who owned it before me didn't take of it. Have you had that problem with it wearing on edges? I trying to decide if to go back with the same.
