boat is almost completely stripped now....getting ready to shoot some primer around the cap line, and some of the other places that need touching up, but here is how the boat sits now...i owe terry a ton for his commitment to sanding on this boat

Any more thoughts on the color you're gonna go with?

I think the orange gel on that hull looks MEAN >:D.

Great job Terry.

basecoat is going to be orange again no doubt about it....paint is still in the planning stages....there is alot to still do to the boat before it all gets there anyway one thing at a time really....i got a visual of colors in my head, and it looks great, but getting it to a complete form cost lots of green...and i gotta finish the tahiti for this boating season anyway

I hear you about one thing at a time.

That orange really caught my attention. Espescially the 2nd pic, the view from the front of the hull.

Good luck with it.

Christ! The thing looks scarey even on the trailer safely locked up in the fence! And that one ain't got a blower on it!

You KNOW Terry ain't gonna let that thing outta his sight without one right?
