Someones tried to cap it at one point. None came that way.

Probably a 19' Sleek Kauai model. Everything there is screaming Sleek! Engine cover is a little different than those I've seen, but probably modified for that look. Hit Bowrider up for more pics. His is an original Kauai.

I'll try and get more pics of my trailer. Limited ability on this desktop. I asked Santa for a new laptop for christmas. ;) But it's a Road Runner trailer, according to the title, same year as this 1978 boat.

Ray the name and reverse gate really brings the look together :thumbup:

LOL! The name was voted on by this site! I had a guy who used to work for me (he used to be a sign painter) do the artwork by hand. The reverse bucket is gone, due to a bowl change and place diverter addition. SAme guy painted on the new Arizona reg numbers when I transferred it finally from Cali. Trying to get my brother to work over the bucket so it'll fit again, but probably just gonna hafta have the guy redo the new reverse bucket

LOL! You'll never know Lupo, how much divine intervention was involved in the meaning behind that boat, and building it. ;D

Here's a couple archive pics that might help ya with the trailer situation.
