Thanks RD ,very "period correct" (the seats)

MissB , this was a simpler job for us the pics are the "before" ,more to follow soon Tom

PS the "gold" kind of reminds me of an 80's Lexus :D

Stripes on the floor too,stripes on the jet intake , halon engine fogger,etc etc some pretty cool features for a boat with "seemingly" no history (no one remembers or recognizes it ! To our knowledge the boat may have never seen water prior to our getting it . Clearly the guy had a lot of time on his hands?
Being as we (JBP) are now doing what we belive is the original "set up" curing the porpoise has been a "trial" But were getting there . First trip out the wife said "this is embarassing !!":eek: the boat littlerly could not be driven past initail plane Tom
