Very nice. Imron, gel, Interlux? Your splatter pattern came out nice, as well as the other mods.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.

The floor, transom, and seat frame are gel-coated and splattered by Pro-Fiberglass in Walker, LA. I did a ton of other work, including:
New floor
knees
rear seat frame
side consoles
Zero-effort controls
real carbon fiber dash
dash molding
steering wheel
4 cup holders
raised front seats 1 1/4"
move front seats forward 3"
hinged the rear seat for storage under
moved rear seat back 12" and shortened rear hatch
all new Yamaha and Livorsi gauges
red bezels
red grab handle
locking, sealed glove box
Yamaha dual key switch
4 polk marine speakers
switch panel
Ice chest hold-down kit
Yamaha oil tanks, 2
removed 2x4 braces from seat and hatch, filled holes
painted back and bottom of rear seat, as well as bottom of hatch
clean, polish, cut, screw, and spend a lot of money!

Very nice. All of the mods and updates look well worth it, and as you know by now, you're not supposed to count the costs!

Boat looks awesome! I really like those 23's. How do you do a splatter pattern like that?

It's coming along great! Looks like the tanks mounted fine on those braces. Frees up more room back there. Can't wait to see some complete pics and running time.
