Dave- it was good to finally meet you after all the close calls last year. The lettering looks great!! Someone in the Scarab forum is looking for a "beetle" for his boat. Maybe you can help. The exhaust tips sound awesome, too! Yours is probably the cleanest Scarab III I've ever seen. Now we just have to get everyone else in the water(Paul,Cordell,Troy,etc..)
BRING ON THE SUMMER!!!!!!

Thanks Alan.. now if only I could keep up withb you I'd be happy!!! you gotta take me out for a ride soon !! stay in touch..Dave

Dave glad to here the boat looks good. Send me a photo when you have a chance. I would love to have it on record. Sorry to here you had troubles with the application. good thing it all worked out in the end. just think what I went through doing the entire boat.

Paul.

Thanks again Paul..it looks better than we thought!!!did you ever have issues peeling the vinyl off the transfer tape?? whats the trick?? I use a vinyl "grid appication tape" with my Kroy system that is really easy!! what mil thickness is your vinyl?? I WILL GET SOME PICS. SOON...DAVE

Did you have the paper tape or the plastic tape. I never had a problem with the paper tape unless if it was stuck to the graphic for a long time. maybe that's what happened. I usually spray application fluid on the tape and let it sit for a minute before I pull it off. If I sent it with the plastic tape. I am sorry. I got some to try it out and I wont use it again for application proposes on something that big. I had problems with it when I did the graphics on Shane's boat. I cant wait to see the photos.

Brought my boat from Port Clinton to the Commodore Club a few weeks ago. I need to get my butt up there and find out why my bildge pumps are not working. Between work, prior comitments and the weather I haven't been able to get it together.
Looking forward to meeting you.

Scarab3DMC, Great to hear that things are comming together for you. Look forward to seeing your new look and you at the CC.
