Freshly Painted 170 Finally at Home
« on: May 16, 2012, 09:12:15 PM »
I finally got the boat at home so the rigging can be started. The Awgrip finish came out very nice. It will really pop when the rub rail and the Awlrcaft dark blue metalic boot strip are applied. The motor will also be dark blue metallic.

Looks great! FLY is still one of my favorite colors for a boat. Should look great when it's rigged.

Wow does that boat look different now compared to when I saw it last year sitting outside Broxton's! You got a really slick job on it too! Love the look also with the transom boxes.

The only thing left to paint is the hatch for the larger center compartment. We have yet to make one. If there is one out there in space please let me know..!!!
