Therm, she's a dollbaby!  She finished out beautifully, hope you will haul her up this fall and let her strut :thumright:

Hate to be critical Therm but the trailer could use a little paint too. :wink:

 :thumright:

No joke.  Time to hit the trailer rebuild forum.

Wow Therm ! What a great job! I'm so jealous! I'm hoping to get mine ready by the 4th of July, but things seem to be going pretty slow. May I ask where did you get that Aquasport decal?

Evil -

If you search "Aquasport decal" on ebay, you should get a few options that match changes Aquasport made to its logo, and different sizes and colors.  I matched the original lettering on my boat.  Here's the link to that seller.  Purchase was easy.  Application was easy enough with two people.

Good luck.

It floats.  We water tested the Aquasport this morning.  It was great.  All good with weight distribution, the stern deck drains and everything else. Smooth ride.  Quick to plane.  Long wait and worth it. More pics when I bring her home.  Here's a pic at the dock:

Wow Therm! That is an amazing difference. Like said earlier in this thread, that rear bench is going to be very popular. Slick lookin boat man! :thumright:

Edit: You are going to love having that anchor locker up there. Does it drain into the bilge?

Thanks.  
The anchor locker drains out a thru-hull a the side.  You can see it on the outside of the hull in this picture.  It now has a clam shell over it.   In the floor of the locker we installed a  water tight hatch (access to the bow eye and vent the bilge at the bow) and a bitter end.
