Yeah, like all red deck and hull with white interior. I've got a friend that has a small marina on a lake that sells gas, rents moorings and boats. He was dabling in selling some kind of v hull I/Os and had one coming in that he had ordered. He ordered it with nice colors, but it came in light purple with pink accents. It took him 3 years to sell that pig. |

Imagine how nice it would be if that level of detail and quality had been put into bringing it back to original.

Wow! Nice job for sure. I like it....But good luck getting $25,000.00 for it. Hope they do. I'd like to do something like that and still make a few $$.
By the way,I love the cla$$ics too. |

Tim, you just about killed me with that adder. Great thinking.
I think most agree that the craftsmanship is there. While I'm really big on originality, I do like a plethora of color, and I do like some additional period-correct colors other than the 3-4 colors originally available on a two-tone Cla$$ic hull. The pastels from the late 50's-60's really look good on these hulls to me. If this boat had original style white seats maybe with some green piping, I feel most would have given it the OK. Except for maybe Pete, as he's tough, but I certainly respect him for it. Unrelated but related, we finally had the 390 Interceptor engine pulled from our Cla$$ic this past week. And after a healthy but conservative rebuild, it will be repainted the original Interceptor light green. |

Tim,
Very nice! But, I'd say that is "surround sound." (The dogs look embara$$ed.) Chuck |

If he hasn't sold that boat before July we should talk him into bringing it to Green lake.
I bet if we cranked that sucker up to 11 for about a half hour all the fish in the lake would float to the top dead, we could have a heck of a fish fry. |

OK Kevin, I guess you can ride too. At least you picked up on the graphics. Maybe I'll bring her to "Green" Lake.

reidp, gotta have those little yappy poodles,not the real onesthat stand 3 ft. tall.The lime vests go wellw/white dog.
And ya gotta ditch the hat,too redneck,replace with one of those Skipper hats. It only costs a little more to go first cla$$,and by the way what do the graphics say on the side of this new custom pimp ride ? boat dr |

Frk, were you talking about my new real deal boat or the ebay imposter?
Doc, forget about the brown dogs. For some reason, my chocolates won't ride in it now. I'm getting me several poodles who know what cla$$ is all about.......and with lime dog vests. Steve, I'm still a novice at being cool. I'll try and remember the hat. The neon lights short out every time I launch her. I did the graphics myself. |

Eric, I wear TRIFOCALS and even had a hard time looking at it. I think dark sun gla$$es would be better to shield the eyes from the bright colors. Someone will buy it as we all do have different tastes.

Wait just a second, you bunch of overly opinionated jacka$$es! I think that boat looks FANTASIC! I like it so much that I've had some new styling performed on my '63 Cla$$ic which my real friends tell me is the bomb, so I obviously need to find a new website of boat friends to hang with. Riley, you're welcome to go for a ride, but nobody else.

Definately an add for his audio business. Nicely done but excessive as most of that over the top audio is.
Practical, not really but I'm sure that was not the intent either. The boat itself and the workmanship without all the audio gaga is actually pretty darn cool. |
