Beautiful....beautiful. Can I ask what kind of bottom paint you used for the hull and how many coats?

Absolutely STUNNING! It's a bargain at that price, IMHO. (If anybody doesn't think so, try doing one yourself.) Awesome job Dr. Anderson.

That is one gorgeous boat, phenominal job I must say!!!

Bob

Outstanding! Good luck with the sale! In the last photo, are those fold down seats? If so could you please post a photo of them down.

Great looking boat! I agree, the price is great considering all that went in to it!

Brian: I used a acrylic enamel auto paint, four coats using a medium reducer at a 20 minute interval


Shelby 18, I have included at photo the jump seat in the down position and a additional photo of the new tach and speedo I installed yesterday.

New Tach and Speedometer

I got the airguide instruments from this website www.classicboatwork.com/classicparts/gauges/airguide/airguide.html top shelf instruments, you pay the price but you get a quality instrument for the perfect finish.

Amazing job! You can be proud of that one!

Wow- like paying you 11.50 per hour and get boat for free. Why do I even bother with my project?!! Looks great.

Hi,
Can I ask what model number air ride the tach and speedo are? There are a bunch available. I have a 1962 Merc 500, 50 HP 4cyl 2 stroke. I picked this Lake n Sea hull up for $125 but it has a long way to go.
Thanks,
Eric

Bravo!!!! i'm not aiming for perfection on the one i started but it's motivating to see the possibilities
