No it isn't pink Sphelps, according to the brochure it is All Wild Plum! Wifey calls it my Barney boat! it needs a complete refurb on the gel coat for sure, don't think it was ever waxed except what I tried to do when I first brought it home. Boat seem solid but after seeing some of these rebuilds I am sure it is probably waterlogged like the rest. Maybe make it my retirement project. I will keep it same color, looks great the small area I did get cleaned up!

MERRY CHRISTMAS and happy holidays to all my iboat friends. Thanks for a great year. I've learned a lot from all you experts. I hope the new year finds you all healthy, happy and full of turkey. I've made good friends and have seen a ton of great looking boats. What a wonderful site this is. I'm still hoping that one day we all get to meet.

Just Copy URL from the Browser window and then click the "A" in the upper right corner of your Post window. Then click the Video Icon (Looks like the old 8mm tape) and then paste the URL into that window. That's all there is to it.
