Azlo you are definetely a man with a plan. I spent my holiday weekend stripping my boat while you were painting yours. I like the design. I don't even know what colors I'm going to use but you sure have given me something to think about. Thanks and great work.:D

I love it man, it gives me something to look for on my breaks. And I used it as a conversation and people just started to put their ideas as if they were painting it. This paint scheme came from my 2 younger bros.

This is my first restoration project ever, so i feel like a kid with so many ideas and ambition. I just hope I can make itfor next spring or summer. I keep thinking to myself dont overdo it, just get it finished.

I experimented with the spray gun and found out how to fine tune it. It sprayed better than the opposite side. Im very happy.

Will let the sun shine on it to see what i missed. Will post those pics later. A happy ending to a long week end.

Your boat looks great. There is alot of talent in your hands. I wish i could find a boat mechanic with half your talent.

Nice job Azlo. Cool to see some other Dallas people on the board with active restorations. Maybe we'll see you on the lake next spring.
