Nobody ever will respekt and could pay for that amount of work you all put into that projekt, cause it´s done with love .Keep that Boat and the trailer forever within the family. Pass it on to your children ,in about 55years or so.................when all others are using there electric propelled "things" and nobody knows how a real boat needs to SOUND !

Been out of action a little while. 3rd surgery in 6 years, gal bladder surgery a week ago last Friday. Yeehaw. Back in action now. Everything good.
I’ve been working a bunch on the trailer and the engine compartment.
Winston painted the arch today. He’s getting good with the fade. The engine hatch and the arch are the toughest because you have such a small space to spray 4 different colors. The deck and hull sides will be much easier...

Holy chit! I guess Winston is getting good! Can’t wait to see the final product. At first I was wanting it to go back original ala kinda a Fall Guy truck look but seeing the MV colors/fades you all are laying down you obviously knew better.

Here’s a short video of the arch in the sun. My arch leans back at the top. The top edge of the fade is on the same angle as the bottom, which shows the arch leaning back even more. I don’t know if that is good or bad but it’s somewhat noticeable...
