Best before and after project boat pics.
 

Lets see em. Post your before and after pics to give some of those with older boats and projects some hope!

If my cabin interior gets finished this week, ill post up mine. Id love to see how much the boats have changed after a full rebuild/remodel.:drink:

These are some pics of my 1987 24' Skater I did a few years ago, she's ready for a redo some time soon.

Who is doing your interior? Scotts Auto Trim on 15th did mine. I removed it and took it in. He replaced most of the wood and the bolts lined up perfectly. He is going to re-do the seams so they line up (tough to do without the boat). I would recommend them. He has done several friends boats/covers.

Steve that Bullet is awesome! Put these on http://www.offshoreonlyclassifieds.c...o16854-en.html and be done! :D

After simply doing a few upgrades on my boat this past winter to increase the power and install a Konrad drive, I have a new found respect and admiration for all you guys tackling a complete rebuild!!!

Steves redo is awesome. There is also another Cafe redo in the cig section that turned out sick!

ya, i pm'ed him, hopefully he'll post a few here..its one of the NICEST redo's ive ever seen..:eek:

in due time :cool:

Very nice Steve!

before i started this project i did a lot of research, asked a bunch of questions, estimated all the cost involved. everyone said your better off buying a bullet that had already been updated because whatever you budget will be way off.

they were right:eek:

on the other hand, its been fun doing it the way i wanted it. except for getting burned by an upholstery shop (taking him to court) i have no regrets.

interior

and

I had a supposedly high end motor sport shop in Nunica Michigan that said they do interior work take my interior and $2500.00 deposit, witch also included all the embroidery work and would take two months to complete.
He then said that he could not do the embroidery that I requested. At my expense I sent the vinyl to south Florida. I did not have a problem paying the additional cost if the interior was done correctly.
After 7 months of waiting I went to pick it up. What a joke, I refused to take it and insisted it is fixed. He asked me to let him know what I did not like I told him that it would be easier to pick out what I did like. He agreed it was terrible and told me that he would fix it. Again at my expense the embroidery work had to be remade.
I waited another two months of listening to him blame (his vendor) the upholstery shop. I finally Told him enough was enough I would pick up interior done or not. When I arrived at his shop the interior was not even there. If I wanted it I would have to drive 25 minutes to the upholstery shop and pick it up myself because he did not have time to go.
When I arrived nothing was covered it was all bare foam, Not even new foam like was quoted.
He told me when his upholstery shop refunded the money I would be refunded. I guess I will not get my refund.
I will take it as a learning experience.
I should have sent it to Lip-Ship from the start.
