It will be three years this april 8 and although I have been through many boat / car projects before , never thought it would take this long . The delay was because I had to make the Console , shifter arch , rear motorwell ( 32 skater never came with one ) new transom , hatch , hidden hinges and heads -up . All fiberglass parts were made using MDF as a throw away one use mold , along with Vinylester resin . All alum parts were made with in house mill . Bottom line if I had to pay someone to do this it would make more sense to pay 80 K and be done ith it . All said and done with new zero hrs Shaun Torrente 375 HP 3 Litre EFI's I will be around 50 k . Paint job was done in house by Scott Eller ( paints full time @ high end luxury dealership) and anyone in area that needs paint work or touch up he is truly one of the best !!! Ref's avail

L,

keep the pics comin'

I like your location of the logo...will be very viisible as opposed to if you had made the cooler closer to the bench and the logo closer to the transom...awesome choice!

The hatches are nice and flat and non-protruding!

Larry,

How did you build the port & starboard quarter hatches?

I see one is white and the other is black...
