Still working on pops to call it "Comfortably Numb"

But if he decides against it it will be something pink floydish.

Only crappy part about having a partner in a boat is all the damn decisions. Haha but its pops and we are best friends and its been fun arguing back and forth. He nutted up and said lets go with the 600 tho haha.

I would love a ride if that's possible. I know a deck boat is next so I'm trying to get a feel for what we want/need

Lol same deal w our boat. Me and pops went back and forth on a lot of things. He let me pick basically everything though. He doesn't even know what engine is in it [emoji12]

absolutely! Bob says it will be done in November but i really dont think its possible with the holidays and he is swamped. Pops and I told him to take his time and if something needs to get done before us its not a problem.

I think that's smart. We took delivery late because I told them I didn't want anything rushed I wanted everything done right and didn't want to bring it back. Of course that's not exactly how it played out but that v13 had some bad luck [emoji12]

Go gray or white! It would make the boat really stand out!

got some new updates. Started wiring today for the speakers and some other stuff....got the led nav lights on and some hardware in the back. Looks like all the holes are cut for everything and they are working on the interior as well. Gonna be interesting to see how the interior turns out. I tried to do a little something to match our gel scheme but also simple on the seats. No carbon fibre stuff as pop thinks it looks space age trashy... Hope to see the interior in sometime by the end of the week. At least the front . Im assuming engine and drive next week which i just cant wait for.....and i went with a Gray Trailer!!!!!!!!

Dirtbag, I’m not savvy enough on here yet to figure out how to send DM. Can you hit me up? Doing a 28’ Shockwave build and have some questions…
