Ashley she looks phenomenal.

One of the most pleasing aspects of the flatback is the integral spray rail on the deck cap. Especially as it wraps at the bow. Man...yours really seems to pop.

Her lines....know you must be stoked :thumright:

PS..[edit]..could you input on tank discussion on Oldschool's thread? tx

Sailboat crap does come in handy sometimes! Pretty slick setup...

Look at the shine on that thang!   :salut:   Eugene has done some nice work there.   :thumleft:  

Gonna hate to get it messed up with fish blood, net marks, anchor dings, etc.   :oops:

Looks great - I bet you are excited.   :bounce:

Thanks, here is better pic of the door. They're finishing up rigging the boat now and I'm picking it up this weekend.

I must say, as great as it looks in pictures, it looks even better in person :thumleft: .  Eugene did a great job refinishing her.  Enjoy the heck out of it, Ashley!

Left SC and took the boat to Boynton Beach FL. Crossed over to West End and then over to Elbow Cay. Burned gas at around 3mpg on the 400 mile trip.
