the owner of this boat wants it white and red
i cant quite find a good line to break the red on in the back here what you guys think some kinda half scallop is what i was thinking
either way i dont have a body line back here to go with

i got another one thats smaller to do next anyways ill post up a pic once i get the white on its going to be cool and it will blend in
