Nothing but good things to say about Rene and his work. The little things he has done for me have all met expectations. These look great.

Looks great, did you gel or paint. I am restoring a 1980 Taylor Stiletto and want gel, but I wonder if paint would be a better option. I am doing the work myself, I have sprayed a few things, but gel coating an entire boat, top and bottom would be so much sanding, cutting and buffing.

Great looking project. growing up the Schiada's were always my favorite.

Looks amazing. Are you rigging/putting it back together yourself?
