And after a long day of wiring and fitting to the hull. she's on, still needs the seal form arch to tower installed but as it has to come back off as I'm not real happy with the body work. It's not perfect and I'm way picky body shop my hate me before its done.

    Almost complete. Lights, speakers and top all done. Only thing to finish is to color match to the boat. The first shot was a little off on the tint once it was outside in the sun, ended up being a little brighter white then the hull was. But like you all know this one ended up going to HorwardZ so it's going to his guys Monday to be color match to his ride as my boat has been massaged a lot with wet sanding and buff and polishing back to her original glow.


    It's time to be getting wet around here and the family in on me hard each time the sun shines and its in the 70's here. So I'll be finishing the swim platform and start building my arch/tower as time allows between lake days. Soft goal is to be done by Memorial Day weekend.

    With all the time and energy I've got in these two ideas, I think I'm more excited to get the new stereo set up installed. Fusion AV-700, fusions docking station, 2 12" subs,11 JL audio 6 1/2" odd number is cause of the 3 going in the bow area now just to make the final decision on amps.

    That is quite the project! Good for you on being picky. I can't think of a body shop in my area I would let work on my stuff which is unfortunate. Sense of pride in one's work is non existent for some reason. I painted for 11 years. I'd loose sleep knowing someone was unhappy with a job I personally did.
    As for the sound system.... AWESOME! I'm in need of another pair of components which would bring me to a total of 4 in the main area.
    How many batteries? Sorry if you posted that earlier. I skimmed but didn't see.

    I'll be running 4 total batteries 3 deep cycle interstates for acc. And 1 start battery on the motor. Thinking about running a lil Honda generator for charging and running ac stuff. Time will tell if I ended up doing that.

    Swimplatform didn't make it on my boat either here's how it ended up looking. Don't hate me I know it not a mariah but it was a nice 266 crownline it ended up on.
    For those who followed early in the post you know I was thinking of a all tubular style but after talking with Oregondune it changed up loved his idea better. ImageUploadedByTapatalk HD1369708648.981206.jpg ImageUploadedByTapatalk HD1369708682.251561.jpg seadek was going to go on top of the UHMW sheet.
    After we had it that way the customers wife didn't like the tube showing so I covered it in fiberglass and add wings to flow with the hull and let us use the Ubolts tie downs as side anchoring point to the platform too. It was color matched( he picked the color) to the boat before he decided to have me fully detail it wet sanding and buffing got back the original cream color so he's going bring it back this winter to reshoot it.
    Here's the end result
