Well I know its not a rhino but I figured I'd post pictures on this site anyways. The build is moving along very smoothly. The motor should go in the first part of next week. It sure is hard to stay away from the shop while the build goes on, I always seem to find some reason to have to run down there. :)

Not a big Georgia fan but I do have a couple bulldogs :)
As far as speed goes I would guess low 80's. The infused hull should help it run a little better.

Well at least they fixed that front right wheel for you :)
Great looking boat. Can't wait to see it complete. When do you think she'll hit the water?

Where do you boat? My reason for asking is I'm surprised at all of the dark colors (on the upper surfaces) that a lot of builders are doing now. I've been in dark colored boats before and all kidding aside, when its 110 here in Havasu you could not touch any part of the dark colors!! Just something to think about. Looks good though. Good luck with her. NSF

My boat is blood red with black fades. I never seem to have any issues. None of the exposed surfaces we really walk on or have to touch when we are boating. If it was a closed bow, I could see some problems. Waterspots seem to bake on a little quicker but Im so meticulous I usually wipe them down before they get a chance to cook.

LOL, I never said anything about you kidding. You must have confused my sig with my post.. LOL. The item about "kidding" is in my sig, not my post.

Boat looks awsome! I have dark burgundy on my boat and damn does it get hot. Just leaning over and touching it for a second after a day in the sun and it will leave a mark.

We had the safire blue on our 24 and never had problems with the heat. Thankfully the boat is on water and if you need to cool and area off its not to difficult.

I like that John is going with, mostly, timeless elegant graphics.
It won't look dated in 2 years.
I'll buy me one with my next million.
