I'm sure I'm speaking for a lot of the gang up north, but I'm pretty jealous to see such a great gathering so far away. See what you started Trayder! Great job NoBones and Eggsuckindog.-PF

Ok, the dust has settled. Here are a few of my pics of the event:

I know, I wish I had been able to attend but I didn't return from Brazil until that Saturday. Went to a boat show in Rio but they have different taste in boats down there, mostly cuddys with shallow "V" hulls. A few good CC's and pretty good prices on the locally built boats, good quality too. Excellent sailfish and dolphin fishing but the fishing grounds are about 60 miles offshore so a need for speed is paramount on the boats.

What do you call the color of the light green boat. Love the color.
All the boats lined up looked good but the green is really nice.

That is Capt. Chuck's "Gucci Green"
If I recall it is a Sterling color. I'm sure
he'll chime in on this. As you can see yellow dominated
the gathering.

Doodlebug, NoBones, Natural High, Tequila Sunrise and Wavelength.
See ya, Ken

Thanks, I like fighting lady yellow too.
I should get the graphics and see how they will play over the paint colors.

1n 1985 Tom Fabula from Signature Finish made the custom green color for me. If I remember it was a mixture of forrest green & Hatteras off-white. The Hatteras off-white was the closest match to the interior gel coat I could find

Thanks chuck, I like that color.
I may do just a bit diferent to not be such a copycat. Maybe a bit darker.
Dan Morgan of Apple Valley Corvetes will most likely make the paint. He the guy who made the helocopter into a motor home for a traveling Viet Nam Memorial. If I go in asking for a certain color he will tell me he it's not right and then just change it anyway. LOL
Right now he's helping Al Demora make cars for the movies.
I will post theb paint when done.

Ken was that scepter an IO? I can't remember.
I think it had no engine right?
If thats right I have a low hour I/O in a SeaRay I bought in the middle of the desert. Seems in great shape.
I wanted the trailer for something and will most likely yard art the hull.
