The old "Mermaid" thread was getting too long, so for practicality reasons I'm posting these newer pics in this new one.



I'm not sure these anti rattle stripes will last long, but for this coming summer they'll do fine:

Plenty of space to work under the bench supports:

They're looking good, thanks.

Nav, thanks for the connection of the threads.

No, what does BOAT stand for? Let me guess, ... Boy On A Tour...., Brides Overwhelmed And Terrified, hmmm, Did I get it?

If it don't hurt when you pay...your not doing it right.
If it don't hurt when you pay...you left something out.
If it don't hurt when you pay...you need a better mechanic/welder/fiberglass guy or just fill in appropriate boat hand.

Those also work <grin> but I had two other, almost identical ones in mind:
  • Break Out Another Thousand...
  • Bring On Another Thousand...

Carl, Nav,

Yes, I now remember the BOAT initials...
Perhaps it should more likely be acronymed as BOATT, for... TENS of thousands, which more accurately depicts reality !

Yannis, it says thousand but it doesn't say thousand what... Sometimes it just means 1K of these...

Sometimes it means 1K of these...

And sometimes it means 1K of these...

You're right but I keep strange hours wherever I am at the moment...
