yeah sucks for me i guess its pretty close

ive been hearing a month for more than a year now

Here are some pictures of the Kona.  I bought it from a guy in Fullerton in Aug.  It is a 1971 with an OLDs 455, Berk pump, B impeller (going to be an AA).  I currently have the boat stripped to do some resto.  These pics were sent to me buy the seller, before I bought it.  The shine in the pics is from the good ol wipe down with Marvel and a rag.  Needless to say, it will look that shinny w/o the marvel when is goes back together.

is that real wood?

I had that wood look on my first jet boat, it was actually wall paper that they had glassed into the mold, looked good.

But i sold it

Ya thats what i thought until i went and talked to one of the old school jetboaters at the parts counter of our marine shop.
What he told me you would be surprised what they used   but it always looks good

Thanks.  Well, maybe it is wall paper!  I would have never guessed that! That is pretty cool, it will keep the weight down.  That is why I like this site, there is a wealth of knowledge and help here.

Whoops i forgot the first thing, Welcome to the site

That 'wood' isn't anything that was used on cabinets or wall paper. It was made just for using on boats. Called 'pacalite' for something, I can't remember right now the name of it. It's tissue thin and the customer could order what ever kind of look he or she wanted for the wood.  You just change the color of the gel coat backing it up, dark=walnut, lighter=maple or pine or what ever the hell was needed. The earlier version of it was very crude and the lines that were printed on the cloth were big and ugly. The later stuff didn't look as bad, very fine art work, and looked very nice...if you're into that kinda thing. We sold countless boats, as did most builders, with that phoney wood look.
