So it has started, the full teardown to bare hull, going in for half cap, new gel and scheme, repower to twin 450Rs and all new rigging, going to try and keep the interior but we will see if I change my mind on that, some of the little upgrades will be Simrad in dash all the gauge deleted, trying to keep footpedals and fb the DTS to work with those, the side panels in the interior will be changed to the newer fiberglass style the KMG builds, I feel bad tearing the boat apart but know it will be pretty cool when done.

What's on the to-do list? Paint or gel?
So we are doing Half cap stainless rail, all the holes filled in the back, all the holes in the dash except steering and stereo , fill a couple side vents, repair a few spots on the bottom, Kevin is making me his side consoles for the interior and the the Gel, Black windshield with pearl, the red will be electric blue fade with pearl, yellow will be either pink/ magenta/ or black, the silver will be Charcoal with pearl

The pearl is really going to pop in the sun, this is going to be an awesome build!

Is yours the other MACH he had in there
Yes

Would’ve been cool to get Kevin to rent the Adrenaline 26 upper and do the wrap around windshield. This will be fun to watch keep the pics coming.

Are you leaving the cowls alone or paint matching them?

Man you got a jump start on me! Mine is starting this month, im more excited to see the 450's on there and see how it sits and runs ... Will be a deciding factor for me on what I do with my boat after all of our stuff is done .My new adrenaline trailer should be done mid Sept .

I don’t know, man, I thought we pulled the pink off on Mad Props (brand new M37R) pretty tastefully.

All of your renderings look nice…do what you like.


@HydroSkreamin gave myself and a co-worker a great tour of DCB when this was getting color in the mold. It bends your brain!!! I was back about 7 weeks later and it was in rigging and was AMAZING!!!! To see the on water pics is unreal! Cannot say enough positive things about the DCB camp, they’re firing on all cylinders and gaining rpm right now!

We got same tour in June, boat was almost done and way bad ass. The pink was actually my favorite part specially as they were playing with the led controller and had it all in pink that really hit. The neon pink lanyard was a great touch as well if you ask me, just wish they’d show a pic with it.

Picked the boat up yesterday from KMG, and WOW it turned out great, they did such a good job Im super pleased with it, We went with paint instead of gel as the pink we wanted was not coming out the way I wanted, the pink and blue look so much better in person, now its time to drill the fresh back transom, thats the part that is scary for me,

Wow, what a difference. Kevin did a killer job. Can't wait to see it finished with 450s hanging off the transom.
