My same thoughts FF. I do like that hull, I see why you wanted it - will be a nice ride when you are done.
You doing anything to the outer hull, or is the gel in good shape ?

Freak - how about black - where the upper is blue now, then white, then black bootstripe, with black bottom paint ??? I assume you'll keep it in the water all season. |

Van; look into something like this, then add the hard top if that's what you'd like. Save yourself a bundle and have a better made boat.

I agree, the whole transom above the waterline should be a freakflag. |
