I think the airvents on a white boat are supposed to be white. They're not painted, the actual plastic is white in colour. Remember, my boat sat covered on the racks for 10 years, they didn't change a thing. It was 100% stock when I bought it. The fiberglass vent area itself is matt black.

The orange boats are obviously different.

When I bought it the boat had 2.17 hours on it. Now I think it's probably up to 15 or so. I think I'll do the 20 hour service when the boat comes out of the water in the middle of October.

This boat will very much be a project boat, and I can hardly wait to get started on it.

I wonder if I can get it to go 80mph without crazy mods - just by focusing on efficiency.

Can't wait to start diving into it at the end of this season, it'll be pretty cool when it's all said and done.
