Good luck bro , was in the same place with my boat , sat for 6 years and now giving it some love . If u need anything just hit me up
So the bulkhead doesn’t look original it’s kinda half assed. Doesn’t look like it supports much is it a must have in a southwind?

Nice project, one of my friends had part in building this boat in 04A shout out to Flusher...Futs...Bostick...Ive been working on this boat for too long! Couldn't have gotten it where it is without bugging the shit out of all 3 of them! It is almost complete and hopefully make it out for the season opener in march!!

There was a call-out for a magazine shoot they were going to do at Elsinore via Hot Boat. A guy that was on Hotboat.com was coordinating everything and he sent me a PM to come join the shoot. I told him my boat wasn't show quality but I was getting ready to do the rebuild soon. He told me to bring it down anyways they were short on jet boats. So I show up early and see Tom pulling out the freshly built Southwind TD 19. I am like damn that's clean so I went to check it out and told Tom to stay for the magazine shoot. He was there just to test the boat.
I have the magazine somewhere, I think Tom's Southwind and my Southwind (yellow 18') made it in the magazine in the same month. A couple days later a friend of mine calls me and said hey did you and your girlfriend break-up? I said no, why. I saw your boat in Hotboat and some blonde is in it with you. I laughed and said that was the model you dummy. I will put up some photo's of the shoot if I can find them. I think I have a picture of the 19' at the Classic Boat Beach Bash too, Futs took me for a ride. Always, liked that boat.

Man, I haven't seen that boat in a long time. Funny little story...That is an awesome story! I would appreciate seeing the pictures. Been trying to bring it back for almost 3 years. It's not as pretty as it once was... should be just a little bit quicker though.

They had another Asian chick there too, she was supposedly Bret's assistant. Since only one of the models showed the assistant did some of the modeling shoots as well. If the date on these pictures is correct then the next weekend or two was the Classic Boat Beach Bash. So Bret is out at the Classic Boat Beach Bash there taking pictures of the boats on the beach and I guess he remembered me from the shoot and told me to come look at the pictures on his camera. He holds up his camera and there's a video of the Asian chick all naked and he is rubbing her ass. lol The good old days.

I found a couple pictures from the shoot but none of the Southwind 19' (I will keep looking and if I find them I will post them) just of my Southwind 18'. Another funny story is that a friend of mine drove up to the shoot from San Diego to come hang-out with me and he ended up knowing the model. My buddy brought up a 12 pack with him and she hung out with us the entire time and pretty much drank most of the beers in between shoots. lolHell yeah. Nice boat buddy!

I thought this one was really cool of Tom and Bob going at it (of course I didn't take the picture but I thought it was cool). I think it was posted on Hot Boat back in the day.Awesome man! Thank you for sharing.
