I typically provide a pic or 2 of a scheme or stripe layout I like or have seen on another boat. We just evolve from there.

On my previous build I opted for a carbon panel in place of the forward facing tinted lexan for several reasons;
1- way more durable and resists scratching
2- cuts the heat in the cabin down tremendously while the starboard side light and berth port holes allow plenty of light in.
3- cool factor, I think the high gloss carbon looks way better than the lexan.




Matt Lamb from Nor-Tech sent me a few progress pics today.

Thumbs up

Carbon fiber looks great. You probably are starting another new trend.

From my recent visit and the pics that were sent to me it appears that Nor-Tech completely rigged and upfitted my boat including firing off of the engines and running through the electronics prior to paint.
Paul has the boat now & I expect to see it in color by the end of the week.
That just eaves the installation of the rubrail, some detailing and clean up in order to complete.
