Looking forward to another one, I like the DB's with the black following the windshield to the transom, blends nicely and give the boat a nicer, longer line IMHO. :thumbup: :thumbup:

I cut a pattern the shape of the boat, put it on the wall, draw the design by hand, perforate the lines with a spur wheel............then put the pattern in the mold, and pounce pad(a powder filled thingie) and the chalk goes through the perforation in the pattern to give the outline of the graphic.......then tape to the chalk lines.........then put on the other side and repeat........I have reference marks in all the molds to help with putting the pattern in the right spot........

Very cool. I don't have the patience for doing that kind of work. I have lots of respect for real good painters, and gelcoaters, your work is just amazing.
