Well all the words are true, to many of us, like you and I, these boats are practically an obsession. You want to see every Cigarette respected and preserved. So I, for one, appreciate you treating this boat so well.

I liked the way our dash came out on our old cafe. If you’re looking for ideas. Before and after. I think a clean updates dash is probably the best bling a boat can have.

the space the pop up indicators saved was a game changer. Fit the GPS in no problem. And I love pop up indicators.
