Hey guys. I'm new here, and new to boats. I purchased a 1992 Crownline 210 CCR, 454 Mercruiser with Bravo 3. This is my first boat, and I've already enjoyed several days out on the lake with friends. I'm currently in the middle of redoing the interior of the Cabin, and the Upholstery. I'll be posting some pics as soon as I get them uploaded. I've found iboats to be a valuable resource, so I figured I'd put up pics of my progress here.

Welcome AV, good luck with your new to you boat...

This is one of the few places where people enjoy drinking beer, while handling modified grinders, air hammmers, chisels, flamable liquids, toxic paints.......................ummm, and sewing machines :rolleyes:

okay, let the pictures commence.. I've done some work already so there will be a lot of pictures at first, but then I'll update as I do more.

What she looked like the day I bought her! She was in really good shape for being 21 years old.

Digitizing the new Crownline logo so I can embroider it on the new interior pieces, and use it to make new decals for the side of the boat.

Okay, did some more today and yesterday.

Started making the accent stripes/cushions for the side panel
used some vinyl that I cut on my machine as a template.

2158.jpg


2159.jpg


I'll have to take more pics of the panel tomorrow..

Moving on to the work that was done today..

took all the accessories off the boat, to get a clean surface to work with, had the Boat Helper help me wipe everything down with acetone.

Here she is all clean and ready for vinyl wrap!

2177.jpg


Putting the wrap up on the boat to get size and position correct

2178.jpg


Pealed the paper backing off and had the Boat Helper hold the vinyl in position

2179.jpg


She had to hold it in this position until I got the majority of the rear of the boat squeegeed down! She's a REALLY good helper!

2180.jpg


got most of the upper rear down.

Looks like a time consuming, but fun project. Will love to see the finished product.
