That's like finding the General Lee from the original jump scene. I'd paint it like it was.. 8-)

This is such great news, to uncover the origins of the beast! I got real excited when you revealed the old name and it all started coming together. It's like finding the key to a long lost treasure chest. I'll be coming by this weekend to check it out. It's so nice to see the continued growth of the wave-jumping big-boat fleet. The lines are... well... okay. If you're into that sort of thing.

This project reminds me bit of Encino man, or Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer, whereby your taking something you've discovered from the past, cleaning it up, dressing it in contemporary clothes whilst assimilating it into modern society. Then it rocks the party!
It also reminds me of the time I discovered my girlfriend used to be a stripper, and all I wanted to do is show off to my friends how awesome her moves were! And then I found out later that she had been a party girl in a freaking beer commercial, and it literally blew my mind!!! I was on top of the world! Ok, so that never actually happened, but I bet that's just what Jo feels like :D :mrgreen:

C'mon, this boat cruises by in a BEER COMMERCIAL?!?!? That's just ridiculously cool. Dude, whenever you get this thing in the water, it will officially be the Summer of Mic Light!!! Can't wait...

Whatever paint scheme you end up going with, it's name shall be "Chas".

Ha, I remember that day. I had to get a new sleeping bag due to the voluminous content of your emptied stomach.
We got a LOT of BIG air that day! I remember kicking that session off just right with a scary-huge launch (going way too fast) just as we were leaving the protection of the islands. Yeeehaaaawww! I also remember that, when you were passed out in the cabin, I went and picked up your girlfriend :mrgreen:

Yum...the smell of regurgitated PBR on a hot summer's evening inside the cabin/coffin of a 24x7.

Cabins belong on shore. :mrgreen:

The final update for this winter, as it is shrinkwrapped and put away until the next time.

Im happy with what iv accomplished, considering the horrible cold conditions with nothing but tarps between the friged outside and ricks $10 an hour propane heater. I was able to meet my goal of recoring cockpit section of the boat. Next job will be recoring rear mota area.

Couple pictures

Image
This is after i used corebond to fill all remaining voids and to make smooth transitions for the biaxle to go down

Image
And with 1 of 2 layers of biaxle matting. Core is sealed in
