It aint easy, bein cheesy.
seriously... its ALOT of work to keep it up. In fact, this summer, Im gonna have to redo ALL the outside teak.
Also... althought he picture doesnt show it... the paint is so clean, you can smile and see the cracks in your teeth in the reflections.
Does have a ton of spider cracks too...
but... it still runs a solid 68MPH...
You should see the look I get when I pass a 2002 running only 454 stock... with a 22 year old boat I paid 25k for!
mwhahaha

Nickslick.....I've been meaning to tell ya, that your boat is great looking!! I like the lines, and just like working on some of the older boats. Just like mine, it looks just like the old Boating Magazine adds, inside and out. Think its like a classic car, some of them will always look nice, and, are different............Bob
