Ok, so I'm finished with the work I will do and now it's time for Premier to finish the building of the two couches and Big D will be looking new and pretty. You will notice many upholstrey cap buttons not on yet and a couple of small details unfinished' but, for the most part, it is done.

Cost of materials - $650
Number of hours worked - about 100
Emotional cost - Many big smiles on my face!!!!

Yeah Richard, not having a trailer is no longer an issue. Give Big D a sip of some sweet water.

BTW, looks fantastic! I plan on doing much the same on my F20.

the next in a long line of raising the bar for the rest of us from DOnzigo. Looks great richard, and I like the day boat idea- makes it so much more practical and roomier. can't wait to see the finished product (ditto on the @ palatka).

That's what I'm talkin' about!! Looks great. I started with the cockpit on mine since it was in bad shape. Had to totally build the twin bolster seat from scratch. Still in the middle of replacing all the upholstery. I will certainly need to quiz you on particulars once I progress to the cabin. You have given your boat a much more modern look inside, very custom.

It looks great Richard, are those die cut decals on the plexi, or are they silk screened on ??

Richard, what did you remove to make it a dayboat?

Thanks, everybody, for the kind words.

The DONZI insignia is etched into the plexiglass.

Cuda, I took out everything in front of the door to the inside down to the bare fiberglass and started over.

Wow, that looks great. Glad you went with the white. It should have plenty of room inside with the head removed. Still have stowage for all your anchors? I'm hoping to get down to Tampa within a few months.....i'll get in touch when\if I do.......When are the seats due to be ready?

Thnaks, McGary. Let us know when you come down. Lots of storage.

Hey, can you send me a file to do that clock thing for Florida, like you have on your post.

Thanks,
