Very nice! I like the way the side graphics go above the rub rail. Interior looks fantastic too.

Looking forward to engine and drive pics .

That boat is a beauty!

Thank you, my wife bought me the boat for my 50th birthday and she even picked it out. I have thoroughly enjoyed the project, I just have a few things to clean up on the interior. The fabric on the hull around the V-berth needs to be replaced and I need to locate a source for it. I also tore a hole in the sun deck pulling it out of the garage and forgot to put it down. Other than that I'm still working on getting the right prop, had BBlades do some work on mine and it killed the handling, so back to the drawing board. I've been fine tuning the carb for the last 3 years to get the best performance and best fuel economy. I get almost 3mpg at 55mph so I go all season on less gas then my buddies pontoon and I drive hundreds of miles every season.

I hope you know that your wife is a Keeper!
My wife when I retired, Thought we should buy our VR 1 to replace our 280. She is a keeper also.
