I stopped by Velocity today and took some pictures. Picture quality is lacking.

The ones I get from Kenny are better quality. Next time I go, I'll take a good camera.

The bow rail was put on and looks better than I thought and much better than the original all black rubber rubrail it had on before.

A colored plate goes on the port side dash.

I like the metal (SS) rubrail insert, seems more durable than the black rubber or vinyl insert.

I was really surprised at how much better the SS rail looks. I was talked out of being cheap and keeping the old one. I let the guys at Velocity make alot of decisions. They know way more than I do about what works and what doesn't work.

It's got a ways to go yet. Billet aluminum seat bases should be in any day now...

Looking good!! Steve told me he would not put my old rubrail back on the boat so I asked him about all black and he said "nope" I'm glad I went with that one too. You're getting these bolster stands? they are bada$$

I'm not sure if they're the same seat bases. But they look similar if not identical. When they come in, I'll take a picture.

They are starting on the cabin. These pics show what it looks like now. Most of the extra bulkheads put in for racing will stay in place and shouldnt be in the way too much. Not that I'll need them, since this will be a "family" boat.

Stopped by Velocity today and they were starting on the cabin. Not much to look see at right now but there was a bunch of prep work to get to this point. Floor, glass work and wiring in the cabin was done in the last couple of days. Stuff that will never be seen.
