I am headed over to Opa Locka tomorrow to work with Chris Dilling on the hatches and some more sanding and buffing. Rigging will start soon!

Awsome story. I can not believe I am just picking up on this now. Love the old boats and have a few in resto myselef. I am in Naples and own a business that includes aluminum fabrication, powder coating, polishing, small parts plating and media blasting. Please feel free to call me if there is anything we can do to help with the project. Always willing to donate to a GOOD cause Would also love to see the boat some day, I have seen pictures of this boat for the better part of my life. GOOD LUCK, David.

I saw you guys headed north on 75 in Ft. Myers on 4/22. We were headed south with the formula in tow. Boat looked great from across the highway!

Hey everybody

Mike and I just got back from Sanford after working on the boat the last two days. The rigging process has started with the gas tanks in and plumbed, the floor glassed in, transom assemblies installed, tabs mounted. We are still sanding and polishing, which is quite a precise process we are finding. I think we're going to have the professionals (Cesar Guardado) finish it off as us two rookies just can't seem to get the final product we want and the boat deserves.

It looks like we're still on schedule for the Jacksonville Poker Run so I'm going to post a few pics from this weekend but leave the finished product to be unveiled at the run.

Thanks for checking out the thread David. If you're in Naples then you'll have to come out for a ride some day. I don't think you will miss us in Naples ...not the typical boat for the area if you know what I mean.

PM me your number when you get a chance so I can get a hold of you. Mike and I are always up for meeting new people, especially those that share our passion for boats.

If all goes well we'll be in the water in under a month!
