2000 Fountain 38LT – Face Lift

Ever look at your boat and wonder what you can do to modernize the look? Here are a few prime examples that are very cost effective and practical for your weekend warrior. These are the areas we will focus on:

Interior Accents
Gauge Bezels
Cockpit Carpet
Sunpad Accents
Exterior Graphics

As you can see from the start, the boat is very dated:


Interior / Sunpad Accents – This process starts by fully cleaning all surfaces that will be spray dyed with a primer, followed by a Topcoat color of your choice. This method is inexpensive when compared to a complete interior reupholster, and offers the same rich color as new material. The dye stands up to wear and tear like any other marine material.

Cockpit Carpet – Can be custom made / colored to fit any boat, no matter the style / brand. Marine carpet also comes in many different ‘weights’ that determines how dense the carpet is. Logo’s and custom embroidery can be added as well for a personalized touch. For added comfort, padding can be added to the base of the carpet.

Gauge Bezels – These can make or break the look of the helm. If the Bezels are faded / corroded, they will give a very unappealing look. Livorsi Marine offers Bezels in many different colors / sizes / and angles for those looking to fine tune their dash setup. Bezels are very inexpensive and add character to the dash.

Exterior Graphics – Can be created by Painting or Wrapping. For this particular project we went with a wrap and choose to recover the existing graphics. Wrap material can be made in just about any color, metallics and pearls as well. With a wrap you also have the ability to combine graphics and make your own custom canvas exactly how you want. Wrap Pricing is based on the size / complexity of the project

Same thought, sometimes less is more.

Here is a shot of the dash! As for the product used, we have a company that sprays the interior with a specialized application and dye process. For the do it yourselfer's, you can purchase aerosol 'dye' products from a local paint / body supply store.
