I luv them too! Mike hadn't built one in a while and found it to be harder and really more time consuming than he remembered!! He finished off the open bow to resemble a fiberglass liner and the cuddy cabin too so I could use Gator Step.
Thanks! The blue/silver really popped when buffed out!!
Rub rail is polished stainless. Gelcoat colors are obviously limited so a mix was required. I’m very pleased with Mike’s blue/silver mixture. Originally, I was hoping for the old Chevrolet Marina Blue that you mentioned or the Jeep metallic blue.Beautiful color, reminds me of Laguna Seca Blue
What are the plans for a rub rail?
Thanks !! Yes, a tan interior with blue accents. Teak/blue GatorStep.
Mike said it ran quickly to 75 during the test run with a 28 pitch prop...it might have a little more left. Awesome thing about this hull is no chine walk or porpoising. Teague tested a supercharged Bullet and went 122mph!!
Absolutly beautiful!!! I have an all white closed bow! Best handling boat I have ever own!
I can hit 80 with a 27 labbed B1 with a 525. you should be able to get over 80 no problem!
Could you do a wrap on the cabin doors for color?
I was thinking the same thing. Beautiful boat!
I don't think so. Those doors are a real pain to install, according to Mike Willen. There are also other items inside the cuddy that are acrylic. Mike didn't think they would hold up to wear and tear if painted.
You have no idea how much hand wringing I did. Mike was excited about building the boat and kept telling me the finished product will come out "classy"! I believe it did!!
A wrap would be cheap enough to try, and if it didn’t hold up easily removed. And a lot of things made of acrylic have been wrapped with good results.
Thanks very much!!!!!
Your very welcome and will do!!
