Looks great - guess I need to read back a few pages and refresh on what you shot it with and such.
Great job Chris.  :thumleft:  :thumleft:  :thumleft:

Chris the fairing and curves  on the top of the stern are xxx rated.. Damn!

Have you kept track of your time fairing or don't you want to know?   It would be interesting to know, that way someone without a clue how, but the desire to acheave that finish would be able to multiply your time by about 5 and get an idea of how long it would take them..

Another piece of CAS fine art..... :salut:

Looks great!  Like you stated interior hull sides, non-skid, then rigging. You got power already?

Only thing im missing is power!      Have been collecting everything else for awhile.    Need to take my bracket up to Porta and have it recoated to match too (original silver is peeling off anyway). I tried taking it apart to do it myself, but some of the pieces are 52 million'd together. Oh and they said they slide the hinge surfaces into each other with a 20k hydraulic press. She said they've never taken one apart to redo so well see how that goes!

Which flavor are you leaning toward on power?
