They finally got the graphics taped out and thought everything looked great... had them replace the rub rail in the back too, showing a little wear. All ready for paint except for one little thing, can ya spot it ?

Tom. Great looking dash, the colors really stand out on the dash. Whats the doo-hickey right of the compass and upper pod on top ?

While they were back there in the business part of the boat, had them repaint the drives. They were starting to show their age, so they tore them down and shot them. Found one little hole in the port bellow, so all should be tighter than a frogs a$$ now.

The doo-hickey is the gps antenna for the GPS speedo and the switch is for the GPS speed recall tattle tail.

Worked a little with the painter on scheme and color, wanted a little color but didnt want to go overboard. Love the classic lines of the Fountains.... kept it simple.

Before and after of the side panel, all new rubbers and toggles. Those little items are pricey.... for what they are. The lettering is painted on this panel, instead of a stencil or vinyl.

Kept the dash mono-color, wanted a little more splash but this is perfect for now. The picture never does the real color and luster justice.... the depth is incredible. The painter removed the speedometer, welded a repair plug in its place.... seamless. Lettering is a stencil on the dash, worked out great.... cleared over the lettering, so no chance of peeling or curling.
Throttles painted up nicely, kept the originals.... they had no damage and pleased with result. The Garmin is from an rv, model 7200, 7 inch screen.... was a ebay find 4 years ago. Have to check and see if they make a polarized screen for the unit.
