Hey Matt,
Congrats on getting everything together, I'm going to personalize it some, the 88 and the flag will disapear, and I am going to add some matching blue over the orange, and a bright red highlight stripe will differentiate the two. Then I am going to add a brighter/lighter blue ribbon to match the blue ribbon, but have it ending pointing down. I'm not sure if I will take it over the gunwale or not.After that I'm just going to enjoy it this summer, maybe juice up the motors some next winter, but still not get away from the stock EFI and reliability...Rob

Havent run it yet, I pick it up in a few weeks, I'm having a new Myco built for it...counting the days

Offshoredrillin,
I did not get to run it again. Waiting on some more props from Throttle up. I can't wait to see how your boat turns out. Orange and blue are my favorite colors on a Cig. I want to paint my Myco Orange and I have a couple of blue stripes that I want to bring out with a new Blue cockpit cover.
I bet you can't wait to get your new boat. Did you get a painted or alum. Myco.

I got the welded aluminum. I'm going to be working with Myco designing PPF kits to protect your painted trailers from the abuses of the road. Talked with Bill on fri, and will be designing them when I get down there.He was telling me the beams and fenders get eaten up from rocks and road debris. the film should stop all of this and therefore no rust starting in those areas. My Grandma is in Bradenton as well so it's a good trip. I talked with Barry at Pro-artworks about the paint job and sent him some paint designs that I did on the comp, its going to look like a diff boat for sure, but I'm not doing too much, dont want to go overboard on it...Rob

Rob,
The Aluminum is my favorite. My boat came with a painted Myco, otherwise I would have ordered the Aluminum. Keep me posted on the PPF kits. That sounds interesting.
Mat

I sure will, once I get the designs the only diference will be in the length of the beams. When are you painting yours, I'll send you out one as a test. I like the aluminum too, my dually will have no problem hauling. I looked at a couple other trailer companies, then saw a thread and heard some horror stories. Dealing with Bill has been awesome.the product and the follow up shows why they are num 1.

Bet you cant wait to get it back out? you going to smoke on the water?

Rob,
I have room reservations> I sure hope to make it. Are you going? I won't paint my trailer until this summer when I can put the boat on the lift.

Bob sent me all the info, I may sponser there, it sure is a great cause, and I'm expanding the 3M PPF into marine apps. I have to get the tiger up here, and then see where the $$$ falls, still have bucks going into the vegas shop and not much return on it yet.As you well know jan and feb are slow car months, but have been doing plenty to build the aftermarket in the dealers I support, march is always a good month. I would like to make it out, I dont have reservations or anything yet, Steczy said he would come too, amybe get craig as well and see what happens, I know it would be fun. After all, the people that have boats have cars and we are all trying to protect them. I'm working on kits for boats as well, I'll use my tiger for pattern, Stecz cafe and craigs bullet, and I guess yours for RR pattern, that way anyone that needs them I can cut and ship directly to them. keep an eye on the impact areas that you see will get chipped or cracked and let me know, first hand knowledge in each area by the owners is the best way to design the kits. Maybe we should get you selling some PPF in the dealership too?...Rob

Rob,
That sounds good. I would be glad to try some kits. I have a whole building filled with accessories and aftermarket products. I will be out of town all next week for a meeting in AZ but get up with me the following week.
