I GOT HER WET!.. ok it was by the hose, but still :)

Pulled her out of the garage today and washed and waxed her all up.

Still waiting on the horn.. you can see the hole waiting for it..

I took the vent cover off to make it easier to wax.. incase you were wondering what that hole was all about..

Dude,

Can't pick my jaw off the floor!

I don't even have words fo how incredible she looks! The color scheme blow's me away! I love the deck setting off the colors of the interior.

Awesome!

What did you buff the hull with? It looks like glass!!!!!

I can't wait to see the Bimini! When are you taking her out?????? Hurry Up! :D

I bought the sticker from iboats! http://www.iboats.com/Boat_Lettering/dm/*******.223670107--**********.604375038--view_id.273316

I must say that looks GREAT!! The white deck looks good. Made me really think about yanking out the vinyl and painting the deck. That way water cannot get underneath. Upholstery looks awesome. You really did an excellent job on this one. Have you fired up the engine yet?

Way to go!!

Have a great day,

Rob.

bear_69cuda.. Thanks man..
I am pretty happy with how she turned out.

I washed the entire hull, I buffed her with meguiars rubbing compound to get rid of the oxidation. then i used meguiars premium boat polish to get the shine and replenish the gel coat, and followed that with the meguiars premium carnuba boat wax.

I am heading out of town for the weekend.. family stuff...so i hope to get her to her slip next week!

I did fire her up last weekend with the muffs on. she fired up and ran well.
So she is ready to get on the water and test her out!

Glad to be able to help. That is what it is all about. I had many people help me. Go out and enjoy your hard work and have a cold one while you are at it. I agree, this would be great addition for the completed boats section.

Congrats!!!!

Have a great day,

Rob.
