Missed out on the 50 Johnson but I think this one will work out ok ...

You always have the option to paint the designs on. I mean a little air brush, some tape and some time and it is done. While it looks hard to do, if you really look at it, it is basically one color misted and taped off. Not as hard to do as you would think. JMHO!

Cool Vid and Great background music. The Wog has gotten me "Hooked" lol. He has helped me search, select, secure and rebuild a 1935 Singer 15 91. Can't wait to start working with it.


This forum is awesome.
Happy New Year Sam.

You know I often wondered what it would be like to have all these talented folks on these forums living close together and how much they could teach me about everything. The amount of true talent exhibited on these forums is amazing. With sphelps, Woodonglass, GT1M, kcassells, archbuilder, GA_Boater, MTBoatguy, aspeck, WIMUSKY, and so many others, the things I could absorb and learn from everybody would be amazing. :thumb:

Gm,
I think that they would call that a "Utopia."

Okay Sam, seem you already have another boat project on the design board. I have to finish up some long over due much needed interior updates in the house before taking on another boat. But I really would like to do a bass boat as my next boat project myself.
