I'm not trying to trash anyone, and the guy who owns this boat can do whatever he wants, but WOW, where is the creativity? Is there anything new since the 90's on these expensive boats? Look back over the past 2 decades and the same style is still being used.
:(

I love the way looks...you can always open your own design and paint shop, that way you can come out with new sh!t all the time.:rolleyes:

That "same old paint design" is a modern take of enduring classic schemes - not a trendy fad like body piercings, tattoos and baggy slacker pants!

Definitely not the same old paint design. Most new "creative" designs are stupid. Nasty got this one right. The number of potential next owners (hopefully me) will be unlimited because the design and color schemes are timeless. Great job!! Hope you are bringing it to LOTO this year.

I'm tired of trolls cutting on somebody's brand new beautiful boat. Seems to happen every time there is is a new boat thread. Let's see your paint scheme.

Kinda funny how two people can read the same post and have two different takeaways. I read "ol" short for "old" not Outerlimits. Maybe I'm wrong. I would find it hard to believe the paint jobs coming out of Outerlimits were not some of the best in the industry. Had this happen to me in a different thread.

Oh dang, love the blue to white contrast

it's a masterpiece work of art!

what color are the gauges gonna be?

Hey Noli, Gauges are gonna be black face with orange or red needles. Saw the look somewhere and looked pretty cool compared to a white or light color In my opinion. Again only going to have two tachs and a speedo on each side.

The clear is in the process of getting done now. Being I opted for extra clear. They have to wet sand the whole boat once again and tape it off again before they do the final coat of clear. Pics should be coming soon.

I like the paint scheme and colors. Congrats to the new owner...
