Pickle Fork Paint Schemes

[Greaser]

A buddy of mine just bought an Eliminator tunnel, and asked me if I would ask you guys to post some pics, so he could get some ideas on paint schemes. The gel coat on the boat looks good, but since he ownes a paint and body shop, he just has to paint it. :idea:
Thanks guys for any pics you can post.

please tell me he is going to re-gel it! I have paint on my boat and it is no where near a strong a gel. if you bump it the wrong way it chips. I think this will be the last painted boat I own. I am always scared of it chipping. On the flip side there is much less maintenance involved with paint to keep it shiny.
So I take it we will see yet another jet on Somerville this summer. You must be a bad influence or something!!! seems like ALL your friends are getting jet boats!

Nope, he is gonna paint it. He is talking about using a pearl white, purple, and blue. Using all House of Color Candys.
It should be an interesting season on lake Somerville this year :idea: There should be 5 jets there just from my lil town of Caldwell, not to mention you Houston guys.

[Greaser]

Greaser, I'd post pics but I am on a mac right now and it doesn't like to cooperate with me. Give me an email address and I'll email them to you and you can post them if you like-or show your friend. :hammerhea
