Thanks! I gotta be honest, I wasn't a huge fan of the paint before. I even mentioned as much earlier in this thread when I was searching for a #6 boat. But then I bought it sight unseen. Had Central Power & Rigging (who were responsible for the full restore) do the once over / compression test / oil analysis / etc. and had a surveyor check it out, but I never laid eyes on it before it showed up. When it did, I was blown away. My expectations were way over fulfilled. The paint on that boat is PERFECT. And shines like a new penny. And in person, on the water, it looks fantastic in my humble opinion. I think CPR and Vincent paint knocked it out of the park. I would have never chose that paint scheme but I'm very happy with it.

It does look fantastic running on the water. I didn't get the paint job at all when looking at photos of boat on trailer.

Then again, a good Gun with #6 drives is a rare gem in any case.
