Ive had a few people ask me about the time frame for this, and the simple answer is there were lots of stress cracks to fix and lots of details that Richy tends to obsess about. these are the speaker covers and the grab rails. Also all new gauges and repainting the dash panels, also needed to make a new dash panel as I upgraded to a Garmin92 series touch screen, did a compass delete and the new GPS speedo has a compass built in... Should be going to rigging today... Ive had the complete interior vinyl up here as well at Valentine Upholstery, Brandon is the best in MD, so when the boat comes back we can get that in. I'm doing the sun-pad in a more firm foam and raising it to be flush with the sides of the hatch, that was something from original that always bothered me.

Roper loading the panels and straightening out 17 years of many hands messing with wiring under the panels...all gauge panels will have new pigtails and go to a central plug under each panel. that way if I have to remove a panel i simply undo it and unplug it and can pull it away. along with controlling the power it does away with multiple grounds and chances of one gauge or wire not being connected. the first pic is many diff stereo "experts" work

plenty, just have to put it all together in written form... long story short Richys Custom paint absolutely phucked up the paint, he only sent pics of the good areas, the lines are crooked, horrible tape job, paint all over new gimbles, unpainted and half painted dash panels... basically stole 40k and did a sh!tty job all around.. Soooo took it to mark at rage to have the bottom blue printed and painted, which was supposed to be done last year but Richy took 3 months too long to deliver a horrible product.. I pick the boat up next week or so and then it Goes to Chris Dilling at grafikefx and Andy at MD offshore to get all the crappy paint stripped off and a new paint job...
