The only up side of the superbowl for me is that everybody will be home watching it so I can have the ski resorts all to myself...

Sanity, don't post here much but read often. I saw your original pic and it struck my eye!
Was the boat at a horse stable? Tarped and in sawdust on a trailer? Just outside of Zeli? If so my friend and I checked that boat out when we were looking for a CC in August/September. Very awesome I can't wait until I can show my friend the end result! He'll be amazed i'm sure. Keep up the good work. I am from Butler technically, how about yourself? |

Ryan,
Yes, it's the same boat. Were you looking for an older one? Daugherty. Do you dock or trailer your boat? Where do you boat? Thanks for back pat...it's a work in progress. |

Sanity, I was looking for something cheap. Expected to do some work on the boat but that was too far beyond what my friend and I have time for. Our goal was to have the interior done by The end of February and we ony have one seat down... You are making great progress. Did you have to trailer it home on a flatbed? I think the tires looked bad if I remember correctly. First boat, so we are trailering for now. Like to go to the allegheny river, way up at East Brady, and have also gone to freeport launch. Hope to make it down and boat around the point some time this summer. Where do you go boating?
Anyhow keep those pics coming! |

Ryan,
Believe it or not the trailer made it home. Blink put air in the tires and drove away. That's nothing compared to the Barracuda he hauled home. ![]() We dock in Bridgewater. Love it there. We have an 82-2001. We make a few trips to Pgh. It's nice there but tends to get a little boat busy. There's rumor that they are getting rid of Dashields. That will raise us up 4'. |

It matches the mustang perfectly. Now, they will hopefully get the gel coat to match. I'm excited!!!

LOL-Skinaut thats the wall of fame for two boys(one a Maine Coon) that have passed on. The pictures are deceptive as they were a Petsmart opportunity and we didn't have many pictures so those have stuck. But you're right- everybody mentions that!!!.

There are other things that give it away also.
First- Way to clean, no hand prints anywhere second- disposable girls razors neatly stacked on a spotless sink third- scented hand soap in a bottle, no lava. forth- and the dead give away....the lid is down! these "guys" are ether closely monitored or extremely well taken care of. |

Oh wow! Why the difference in price with the gel coat?
Minicraft 5 gal $783.75 US Composites 5 gal $186.50 The color pigments are a poly grade pigment paste. Unlike paint, there are few colors. Only 13. Minicraft will match for an additional 75.00 US Composites does not match, you're on your own. Hmmmmmm US Composites explained that they do not have a middleman, so they are able to keep prices low. I told them I didn't need a middle man, I need a matching man! What do you think gentlemen? |

You can probably eliminate the red pigment!! I would suggest that you try to match the test patch mixing formula colors as close as possible and mix your own color.
