I agree that there isnt a better looking boat and it has great performance numbers. But.. although the blue gel color didnt help with hiding the imperfections, you could have seen these waves and print thru and all the other problems on this boat thru any color.

I still might buy the damned thing. What is Eddie asking for the boat now ??

Just talked with Eddie at Hideaway. The boat was completely sanded down and painted and then the graphics were added. He says its as smooth as a baby's butt now and looks great

$174,000 will buy it

What he said. You made a point of saying you were ordering a 28' on the Sonny thread.while we were all arguing about Pantara and how long them it took to build a boat. That was somewhere around April. Where do you stand now ?? I hope all is well and a new 28 is being built for you as we speak.

My question is then, if you're going to sand it down and paint it why not go to white since the blue seems to be hard to sell. I also think by adding the graphics you further limit the market as you now need someone that wants that paint design.

Maybe they should have offered "graphics" of your choice if you buy it for $174K. I think it looked better blue but I am not a buyer right now so what I thinks doesn't matter :evilb:

If Kenny decideds to sell my old boat you'd do well to buy it.
