    Project update and recommendations needed.

    Hey guys,

    just finally got the boat all settled at home and I'm digging in, I'm going to be ordering my coosa 26 for the transom and floors shortly, after I dig the wood out.

    I decided that I'm going to go with a late 80s merc v6 200hp with a old school cowl, going with seastar hyrdo steering and a bobs jackplate and nose I think, probably use a smaller battery, maybe a motorcycle battery? Kinda curious about the extra weight of the 200hp engine.

    So I'm looking at having someone else shoot the gel, I don't mind doing the grunt work, but I don't trust my pinstriping skills that much

    Got to move some stuff around to make some more space

    So the questions.

    Anyone have a recommendation for someone to shoot the gel, and also a upholstery guy or gal to redo the original seats around the VT, ON, NY or Quebec areas?

    What's a fair price if I do the initial prep and the smoothing out after spraying?

    Also does anyone have any info on these guys, said they could build me up the engine, all freshly overhauled
