You bringing it to havasu this weekend?
Not making the races this year cause I can't pull a race boat out without needing your excavation equipment.
Leaving either monday or tues and staying through the weekend.
Lol understandable.i think there launching at the ramp this time. No beach launching.Quote:

Sucks you cant fit bezels on the older Halletts that came with square gauges. Joel from Rodes Way Boats made a plate and powder coated it that goes behind his gauges that looks pretty nice. Shit.. his entire boat looks pretty insane after his resto.

Either way, mechanically looking good, hull is solid, interior is a 6-7 but still has some seasons. The trailer is next on the list but gonna have to wait till next year.
Its all powder coat, not anodize. Anodize is nowhere near as durable then it fades and looks like shit after a few summers. I still don't understand why people prefer anodize but to each their own.Quote:

McMaster-Carr sells pens in different colors, which allow you to retrace all of those engraved areas. IMCO uses them on a few different parts and they work really well.
Here's an example.

Thanks NGE....I will check it out.
Wetsanding isn't for everyone....including me but I did it anyway. Should have probably taken this down more...just worried about how much gel I have left before I start burning through.
Before and after shots
