This 1980 Deep Vee Ski Boat was stripped totally and a new floor put in. The hull was prepped and painted, then custom stripes and designs were airbrushed (was painting them on 9/11). The clearcoat has Satin Pearl added and sprayed the next day. New red carpet was laid then the custom seats were built and cushions sewn with red and black stripes to match the design scheme of the boat. A fresh 305 small Block Chevy was installed with a high performance Marine Cam, along with roller rockers, Edelbrock aluminum intake and Holley 600 carb. Stainless and red braided hoses were put on all lines. A battery isolator and 750 watt A/C converter were installed to go with the 12 inch Color TV, Playstation2, and AM/FM/CD Player. A fish Finder/Depth alarm was also installed along with custom red leather stearing wheel. Most of the original Teak wood was refinished and kept along with a custom console door with mahogany Bowtie emblem. The rear motor cover was removed and the rear seat design changed for a total U shaped seating area with a now larger area over motor with gull wing doors for access. A mahogany stained and polyurethaned full length platform was made on the back also. This project was 2 years in the making with uncounted hours.
