Exquisite boat! You have done an excellent job. I commend you
..........on all but the batteries. You dropped the ball there. That boat is deserving of wayyyyy better batts than that.

Ron at Upholstery Specialties in Lake Havasu. He does outstanding work. Very nice guy also. It is no wonder he is usually booked for a year at a time...I got lucky and fit into a cancellation spot...

Wow that turned out very nice, that is some fire boat :D You should be very proud and just think how fast it will be now that you don't have a big thick wallet to haul around :D

WOW. Amazing job, I've been following this buildup from day one, and your attention to detail is amazing.
As for the interior, Ron did my whole interior too. I couldn't be happier. He does awesome work, for a fair price, and he's a nice guy too. Love the Schiada stitching on yours!
Congrats,
Dan

Man!!!! What an outstanding restoration job... The only thing that I can say is that if I didn't put in a couple of foot peddle's on the passenger side for my wife I would be in trouble...:D :D Makes me wish I had kept mine...
GREAT JOB.......

Boat looks very nice. I bet your checkbook is going to feel a lot better when you are done. Looks like an expensive project you had going there. Now it's time to really enjoy it!
