lighter, schmighter....Originally Posted by Dude! Sweet!
Yup. The new Scorpion offshore series came highly recommended. They feel lighter than the old Scoprions that were on the motor and they're blue...
They're BLUE

12-08-2009 02:55 PMOK, a couple of better pics. The transom is grey now. Sort of a tip of my hat to her original color.

12-08-2009 04:09 PMI used some stuff I got at West Marine. I'm blanking on the name. Deckcoat or something like that? I rolled it on. I'm all about 'crude but effective'... It's bright yellow and it covered good even though it was only 60 degrees in the shop. The hatch is basically raw glass with a few coats of paint underneath so I wasn't looking for a riddler winner, ya know.

12-08-2009 07:10 PMX is 17 1/2" as I recall.
You guys are good! That's where I got it from as well... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McGuire_twins
Makes me laugh every time I see it.
Thanks for the compliments guys! Scotty, I knew you'd love the booth. Take that C.A.R.B.!
Tom, sorry I missed your call. I'll give you a shout tomorrow morning on my way into work.

12-21-2009 08:49 PMGlad to see someone is making some progress!
I spent some time yesterday just cleaning up the mess, and working further on seating and the dash.
I have 5 palm trees in the back yard right over the boat that have been shedding seeds occaisonally.
Got them ALL cleaned out of the boat yesterday.
Pulled the engine hatch to plan on getting some work done today.
7:00 am, the "landscaper" (possibly legal) shows up to trim the palm trees.
Didn't know it was coming, and didn't even think about it...
What a phuckin mess in the boat!!
Spent the afternoon re-cleaning the boat only to get back to the same spot I was yesterday afternoon.
Where's Scotty??
He should be getting somewhere on that Saber by now..."Keep the bottle on the bar Ira, I won't be long".

12-23-2009 02:30 PMI think Scotty's doing some secret testing at "Lake Y"... Which is one better than Lake X.

12-28-2009 02:21 PMI'm still around & kicking..
I've had trouble staying out of the paintbooth long enuff to remember I even have a boat.. We had a guy quit here at the shop about a month & a half ago so I went from shooting about 50% of our normal production work & 100%of any custom work that goes out the door to 100% of Everything..
Hopefully I will have an update on the boat progress pretty soon..
