Your paint looks great. I like the way you did your splash pan, I did mine the same way. Also your trim is like I did which is so much better than what was original. I did my windshield just with plexiglass, thick with no frame. It keeps the wind and spray off me even though I look over it. Keep my boat in salt water so I found a white bottom paint that matches my white boat. Kingston

I have starboard stearing so I put it behind the seat to port. I use portable gas tanks so can move them around depending on the passenger load. Kingston

Your paint scheme and finish look absolutely awesome! Can't wait to see some pictures of her when she's done. And share some experiences of how she handles on the water.

Hi Badger,
Sounds like a plan. It'll probably be towards the end of April before I get her back on the water. Have started prepping to paint the engine then new hood decals. After that will be a link and sync. The engine runs strong but its not idling correctly. A link and sync will correct that. Once completed then on to prop and setup testing. Toying around with the idea of adding trim tabs also but won't decide that until further water testing. Looking forward to hearing how yours handles the water.
