Looks very nice, Keep the pics coming.

Did you have them take your rub rail off or are they wraping over it? I cant really tell in the photo.

Umm, have to disagree on that statement. I had a custom wrap designed and printed for $1300 plus another $700 to have it professionally installed--$2000 total. Just to have my boat painted white I was getting price quotes of $3000+. A nice, custom paint job you are looking at $7,000-$10,000.

My before:


And after:




BTW--No seams! All one piece! Two summers of boating and it still looks brand new! Docking is the hardest but the fact that my bow area is white gel coat and not vinyl helps. A full wrap could have issues and scuffing if you arent very carefull around the docks.

There's no seams because its only the sides and rubrail down.

A wrap is a very economical way to update the look of your boat and priced good. I see your from Cadillac, MI. Not sure who you have close to there but a little over an hour away in Owosso, MI, you could give these guys a try. They do these all the time and have seen some of their work.

I checked with agnew when I was looking. They don't like to do a full wrap including the bow because he said their material wont hold up to the UV. Plus they quoted me the same to do from rub rail down as edge did the whole thing.
