Wow!, you're gonna be styling when you are out and about. Love that horn, does it still work?

Re: Pics of my project boat

Horn does not work but I have found a very close replacement and you can bet it will be going back on. I will post more pics after while they will be on the same link

The site says it has had its data tranfer allocation exceeded. Too bad, I wanted to see it...

Re: Pics of my project boat

Web site is working now not sure what the problem was.

Re: Pics of my project boat

since you are hosting it on geocities, it will only allow an x number of hits/data transfer, then it blocks it for an hour or so......

That thing is going to look great when done. I have a friend who did the same thing to a similar model and it is a cool looking little boat. I just built a little 15' skiff and came real close to making it a runabout but didn't. Sometime I wish I had. Have fun!

Re: Pics of my project boat

Finally saw it, it'll be a cool rig. It makes me miss my old 63 Pacific Mariner. It had a 63 Merc 850, people always commented on it at the ramp. It was uncomfortable in chop, plus I didn't see having two boats. I was going to paint the Beast, but now that I am over half way done wet sanding and polishing the gel, I am happier. Paint is fine, but I like the durability of gel.

Re: Pics of my project boat

I am all about the gelcoat that is what mine is getting.
