Well, fuck… 😬😬😐

Important question....

Can we get a Dixxon flannel RDP friends and family coupon code? :p

Tyler told me to do a collaborative effort with them a year ago. (Before Teague even did it.. maybe 2 years?) Shoulda listened.

Now that it’s everyone doing it. I don’t think it fits for us, which sux because I’d like to do it.

Public says though “oh rd is copying so and so..”

Sux because they make nice products but it is what it is.. go with anyone go with everyone, you ain’t gonna go with me.

Great layout & engine package... that color has my homophobia sensors ablaze though.... I see a hot gal buying it though and having a blast.

I will look into it. Last I heard they were building a Luxe toon?

I hadn’t heard that!

I think they would sell fantastic.

Lazerface, Vise and Vise XL styles would cover everybody.

Muertos Coffee did a Cal Fire set last year

If I see RiverWhips glasses before RDP glasses I’ll have to end myself.

Heatwave is not buying a Chasetoon from us. We are doing a collaboration of glasses and each boat comes with 4 pairs of glasses

Doesn't need structural integrity if the laminations behind it are glass.

The woodgrain from the 70s and 80s was a fabric cloth printed to look like wood, backed with laminations of chop strand and cloth glass.

Boat is cool, definitely stands out 👍 Always good to see someone do something outside the box.
You have it correct.
They did a few samples with the real deal flannel but it didn’t cooperate in laying down and absorbed way too much resin.

So a company that does wood veil printed up some plaid for this unit.
The process is the same as the wood grain of the 70s and 80s as well as the exposed carbon fiber of yesterday and today.
I leave them an open window of clear gelcoat they cover with the printed cloth.
It’s backed with a similar color and laminated.
From what I understand the flannel in the interior is the real deal.
Important question....

Can we get a Dixxon flannel RDP friends and family coupon code? :p
Ha!!!
I noticed about 2/3 of the shop sporting Dixxon flannel during and after this build.

I guess they forgot me🤷‍♂️
Let me know if you get that code! 😂

I think the fact that people are talking a lot about the polarizing paint job and design means that it's mission accomplished for Dixxon 🤘

Sort of like Will Smith slapping someone at the Oscars.

Publicity is a good thing

Personally I think the boat is super cool given the company.

There are plenty of corny old ugly overused and outdated paint jobs on the lake all the time but the cool thing is the owners of the boat are having fun.... As long as it's running : )
