I just had to share my excitement. My uncle painted my boat for me and I get it back tomorrow. I'm really excited that he was able to do it for me since he knows what hes doing. Heck, the paint he sprayed it with cost more then my boat...I won't even mention his spray gun:eek:

Anyways...I'm just excited.

Here is one photo. As you can see we were a little busy so I didn't get to take too many of the boat.

Re: My boat is on its way back...FRESHLY PAINTED!!!

I had to show people what my excuse for not posting photos right away!;) Our old concrete step was falling really bad away from the house so we tore it out and we are going to pour the piers for the not so big deck, tomorrow. If I never see another jackhammer again it will be too soon.

I'm really happy with the way it turned out. I forgot to show a before photo so you can see a difference. I'm still going to paint the inside but I haven't got around to it yet. Hopefully soon. Its funny. The paint job is kind of bitter sweet, the paint looks great, but the previous owner lack of respect for the boat really shows now. Still, I'm very happy with it.

I only have one photo of the before shot now, but I'll try to upload another photo or two later.

Looks nice, be sure to take your uncle out for a nice dinner, painting is not an easy thing to do.

I am in the middle of doing my wifes car now and I did my boat last year, alot of work it is.

Good luck with the deck, I think I will stick to rubbing my bondo.
