Hopefully will have it back over to get the motors and drives installed in a couple of weeks...Stopped by this afternoon and checked out the painting and it's coming along...Mark said he hoped to get the clearcoat shot next week...That and complete all the fading and airbrush work...

Thanks, starting to get a little anxious to get it finished but want them to do it right and take thier time...I'm not sure about the "Fricso Cat" boat....Lofty posted that pic to show what the Arneson's look like on one like mine... I'm sure he would probably be able to answer that one...

Its still at the painters but getting closer I hope, just have to finish up the clear coats and put things back together... I didn't run it that hard last year when I bought it, fastest I had it up to was around 110 but it should go to 125 or so.
