Big changes! Looks good. If you upload the pics to your gallery it will allow bigger pics to be uploaded, in fact it doesn't care how big, unlike when you attach them.
Follow the instructions here http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?topic=12725.0  - don't attach them, this is better for viewing.
Spend a few minutes to absorb the instructions. It's really easy.

I just didn’t like the sea foam green gel coat so sanded it down and reshot black gel coat.

Boat looks cool and perfect for skinny water.  Are you going with a jack plate or a Porta-bracket?

With the 140 Zuke, you’d save 100 lbs, draw less, and I bet she’d still fly.

Yeah I have the atlas 10” jackplate, power pole brackets, and dual 8’ power poles. Trying to make up my mind on trolling motor, electronics and engine.
