Nice work....you might considr painting the port hole frames black to blend in with the stripe...the white plastic frames sort of stick out. When I had my B20 Bahia, the proportions of the black stripe are harder than you first think.....our daughter is an artist and sketched it out in 15 seconds.

I noticed you removed the windshield. I'm in the process of starting a restoration on a 69 20 bahia mar. Any problems with spray? I'll post some photos as soon as a family member walks me through the process. Wish I was more computer savy.

Spray is not an issue for us. In the summer heat of the Gulf Coast a little spray is nice. We don't get much spray unless we are trying to push the throttle in heavy seas. We are going to get a plastic windshield made for the winter-time runs when the water and air are cold. I like the look of our top and handrail without the windshield.

If you're going to do snaps into the aluminum tower frame, be sure to use TefGel to isolate the dissimilar metals...
