How is that different? Shined up, I think the Yucatan Yellow would look awesome.










*disclaimer: I am not 100% sure all boats pictured are Yucatan- though I think they are.

Michelle, I admit that I probably wouldnt have ordered a boat in Yucatan- but I wouldnt have ordered Inca Gold either. I do love my red boat, but theres something very cool about these vintage boats in the unique vintage colors. I get a lot of comments on mine- once restored, Im sure you would too. You can count the number of Yucatan boats in the diaries on one hand- its rare!

At least you know where I stand.

Michelle,
Stick with a original color! I'm recommending this because of the many years I've been involved with antique and classic boats. You may not know it but your Mustang qualifies to be entered in a ACBS judged showing even though it is fiberglass!!!

I've got a feeling all the boats you pictured are the Yucatan Yellow. Just differences in color reproduction on paper/film.

Now here's a great color on an old boat..
Green Skier

Like Stang's Mustang, rare and very cool. The old colors are great, if their restorable...

lol...that's a great question. I sit in front of 2 computers - pretty much as much as I want and or need to from 7:30 till 5. When you "watch a topic" it pops right up there.

That's calling the kettle black there Mr 4900 posts Eric hahaha....Lighten up, it's Friday, it's about to snow, and it's almost Beer-Thirty. I run the joint, and don't feel like work'n. Any more questions???

Michelle, The Mustangs didn't have a temp gauge like this one pictured. You have the smaller gauge cluster (which looks better anyway).. I don't remember any CC that did..

Yep, just turned beer thirty,, First one's on me.. Eric needs two, so he can chill out

A few spot repairs to the gel would be a lot easier than an entire repaint/regel anyways. Im assuming that youre tackling the structural work this winter as well- if I were you, Id get that squared away once youre done stripping the paint. Redo the interior in something neutral (white/cream). Get the boat solid and functional for next year, then decide how/if you want to approach the exterior cosmetics. Just my 2 cents!

I agree with Tim,get yourself one of these-

you can use it to see how your original gel cleans up and if you regel it will help also. Does anyone have a picture of that Orange Chevy powered Mustang at Green Lake? That boat would convince anyone to regel

Ok, new thread in general dis...1970 centurion

Michelle,
Well now with the teak platform it blows all of my hopes that you were going to do a original restoration. Now you can even paint it purple!!!
