A blank canvas, beautiful. Painting any color back there? If so now’s the time!

When I saw this update I was hoping to see crates of new Arnesons...........hope everything comes together as planned.

Honestly that was a great idea, where were you a few months ago with that suggestion lol........

I would have priced it out but not sure if I would have done it. The boat was actually getting some small blemishes re painted and some holes filled and repainted from some old antennas and such that I had removed, so that would have been the time. The boat doesn't spend much time on a trailer (lift in front of house) and honestly I'm thinking about adding a 2-3 ft aluminum swim platform to help get them out and over the Arnesons so I don't think you'd ever see it unless it was on the trailer. But if the price was right that would have been a nice add.

I meant in the engine bay / bilge, I think you’re referring to the transom? Either way, white looks good too, nice and clean. I almost left mine primer white it looked so nice and clean

Your boat looks great!......and ya I thought you were talking about the transom. So we are refinishing the bilge while everything is out, I did decide on just leaving it white and doing accents with things like the battery boxes, etc. There is so much color on my boat, it is a very "busy" paint job so I wanted the bilge white.

Good idea then. White does look good too!
