north of Anclotte - nice easy run out the Cottee River, past the stilt houses and then head west/southwest until you see boats on the horizon... Good times always. We will be out there next weekend.

Superimposed I meant added the silver over top the blue- was the blue already there and then the silver added? Sorry for the confusion.

Honestly, if the blue was there and someone told me they were going to put silver on like that, I would that thought it would have turned out like crap. It looks FANTASTIC!!! Very sharp!!

thanks Mark - sorry for the misunderstanding - the painter did a great job - you definitely cannot tell that it was added later.

So with that said I really want to sell my current boat and downsize back to twins and the maintanance on 4 strokes with oil changes and having the boat on a lift behind the house stinks. I kind of liked the easy of 2 stroke maintenance

Dirtlawyer...super clean looking boat! Enjoy!

Thanks Mike - I know we keep saying it but we need to get together soon! What are you thinking boat-wise?
