That is one hot hull.

She shows her lines even better upside down.

Nice paint job Eugene :thumright:

I know your getting really stoked now, That paint looks perfect.  You picked an excellent builder and Im sure you'll be happy for many years to come.

So when you come back into town to pick her up, are you gonna stick around and run her in the gulf for a bit?

Thanks, yeah I thinking I may have to do some fishing while I'm down there.

Wingtime,

You have to use both hands and hold your tongue just the right way.

Was up at the Shipoke Shop today picking up my boat after having a few small/minor issues taken care of and looked at the Ashley Flatty.  What an unbelievable job the guys at the shop are doing.  For a 1968 it looks FANTASTIC!  The fit and finish is bar none.  Great job guys :cheers:
