Thanks, going to the paint shop Thursday to check progress... what they tell you on the phone & what you see when your there are usually two different things!!

Well, not much progress at the paint shop. I had to go rent two stacks of scaffolding for the graphics guy so he did not have to walk over any new paint. I guess that is the problem with color coat/clear coat paint systems on boats! Maybe another week or two.

Started the new engines tonight on the bench. The lightning muffler/tailpipes worked real well, but even so I had people coming over from over 3/4 mile away!! (two housing additions & two coves over!! These things are killer sounding. I can't wait for the boat!!

Looks pretty awesome George!
Can't wait to hear how it runs........

Thanks George!! Remember, you had an important part in all this with the engine parts I bought from you. That was an interesting trip.... and quick!! I understand your rig worked out well. I was glad to here it.

I am going to the paint shop again Thursday. They had better made some progress or I am going to kill a painter!!

Time for an update !!!!!!!

The latest- still not done!! See new attached pic's of top deck scheme.

One more:

The pin striping is still to be done- hopefully early this week. I really hope to have it at my shop the end of next week..... still lots to do to it.

Hey BF, if you are not happy, gimme a second chance to buy it!

Well, it looks like delivery this week is out.... again!! They just started color sanding to make some repairs before the "stripper" goes to work... so now we are into next week. It's beginning to look like Labor Day before I splash her. How disgusting!!It won't take me long to finish my work, but this damn paint shop is killin' me!

Here are a couple of pictures of the engine hatch. You can get a feel for what the upholstery will involve from this as the engine hatch is also the rear seat back.
