I wouldnt go that far. Your work gave me alot of inspiration on mine. I always loved the yellow trailer for some reason... Now I have to copy yours, and get the Apache logo for the front fairing..

Thanks for sharing in the build. What was the wax you suggested again? I cant believe how much that Concept paint shines for a single stage

Thanks Austin! I am really happy with the flooring.. I to thought the same thing. The only way it will come out is if its ground out. The pics on the pantera look great. Did you take it back across the gulf stream to have all that work done? How is the Shushi bar going? We would love to get back down there! Miss those famous Pete's Rum Runners from the mayo jar.... Laugh but I am still wearing my spare glasses.......

Well here we go, Just got back from the lake today... Sunny but cold. Was really happy on how it rode.......... Kind of lost track of the build.. Didnt document as best as I could have but, You will see were its at... The few last things I need to do is to install the hatch, sub woofers, Amp, and trim indicator cables..... Not sure If I will put tabs on it yet...

These pics were from last weekend... Tried getting out on Sunday but was loosing daylight... Please dont comment on the stupid gray strap.. It was all I could find. My transom straps were lost. I did however find them this past week.....

These are for you my friend!!! Can you believe it floats! Wish you could have been up here for the maiden voyage... Thanks again for all the help & support. Still cant believe you left sunny Florida in December to sand a whole boat!! You are a great friend! It has come along way...

Now to the interior.... and at the dock.. What a pain at the ramp.. Water was low. In fact, when putting back on. the front of the fender was lined up with the end of the dock. It made it fun tying up.. Was kind of startled with a big rush of fisherman and people pulling out for the end of the year... Hence why the lines were all goofy.........

Here are some interior shots I took.......... Cant forget to give XT Dave's team credit.. Being 8 hours away from the were the work is being conducted could cause some anxiety for most. They did an Awesome Job on the interior and embroidery... They were great to work with and treated the boat as their own. It was in good hands..!

This winter I hope to update the steering wheel & helm....... Not quite sure with what I will go with... But, its on the list
