Foots/TimBobs New 72 Mustang

David, It's a 16 1/2 foot boot. Thanks, for the compliment. I puposely transferred to Delta's Engine Composite shop for this very reason. Knew I was gonna find an old boat some day that was gonna need some work or if I needed to repair the one I already owned. Best move I ever made career wise as it's paid off into something I enjoy doing after " I do my 8 then hit the gate!"   

Art pulled the build sheet for me and the 1200 you are offering doesn't even cover what New England CC paid for it back itn 72.

Larry IS old ski equipment.!

I need to score some Mustang Skis like Brother Gary has for his! That would be a Cool addition.

Tim you gotta find a classic lime green foam O'Brien world team comp vest. Had one years ago but it lost a fight with a teething German Shepherd puppy..

nobody wants to see you in a bikini, of any color

Tim, the spare tire mount was made by a bud of mine here at work who welds up fixtures, stands etc for the engine mtc depts. Plenty of scrap metal lying round to use.

Thanks for the compliments guys..... It's a fun boat to drive for sure and isn't that bad to ski behind really.

Pete, actually, I have a friend who wants to give me her late husbands (and Fraternity Brother of mine I was close with) GREEN high top Converse tennis shoes. I'll be sporting those before too long.

Will try and get a green bikini shot with the boat in the water sometime this summer just to add that little extra added touch.

I cannot wait to see the shoes you painted to match!!

Nice job 2 boat timmy

Tim,

Looking Good. Sounding better.

I must ask, was this putting in or pulling out (post XX Morfoot consumptions)?

I would have thought you'd push the tire before the 4 way bolted loop, unless you maxed that out first and then went the loop...

Tim, the boat looks great. I never even noticed the snaps before they were just pointed out.

She looks awesome. I love the off center striping down the bow and transom.

Wow you guys are tough!

Me thinks I turned a little tight with Dads truck at the Ruckus and adjusted the Bow stop with the bumber on the spare tire carrier. I winged the adjustment when the boat was off the trailer and in the river. I'll have to fix it later. Y'all picked up on the crooked stuff and not the scraped paint?

Time will tell how the oil based paint holds up on the vinyl.

HW....I posed the same question to a couple of the guys about removing the snaps and filling in the holes with Gel. I don't see me getting a cover with snaps so I indeed will remove them.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I really love the transformation. Looking forward to getting him out and turning some heads.

Windshield looks awesome. The boat looked good before but really shines now. Removing the snaps and filling the holes included in this?

I see you turned your crash pad loop around but it does look a little crooked.

(Tim saw my windshield and decided he needed one just like it. A little rarer, I think. I think the unpainted ones were only on the 76 tique, but I could be wrong.)

OMG Tim,   Luv the unpainted windowshield and the vents.   (granny smith vents)

Looks awesome.
