Port side done today. I never noticed how many compound curves are in the cap until I watched them struggle with a flat sheet of plastic.

Looking sharp Lee. Hopefully the boat will be done by the Meet and Greet.

They got the cap done on both sides but the cold has slowed them down.

Lee, looks really good. I like much better than the original snow camo. Any idea how long it should last?

5-7 years typically in the Fl sun but since I keep it under cover they're saying closer to 10 before the fading starts.

That's great.

I really like that pattern and it looks sharp.

The wife saw it and is asking about doing that to our boat now.

Deadeye · January 23, 2020, 05:32:49 AM

Looking Good Lee.

Looks good Lee and hope it's done in time for y'alls get together.

Lots of work remains. How long will it take to install the Seadek after the wrap is complete? I imagine it will take another 2-4 days to re install all the hardware, the guages, trolling motor etc. Then another full day at least to put all your stuff back in the boat. Lots to do before the upcoming meet and greet.

They should finish with 95% of the wrap by Thursday. I'll pick it up then and start putting the hardware back on the boat.

C and O marine has all the dash and bow hood pieces I need and are sending them out tomorrow UPS. Hopefully I'll have them early next week.

The Seadek will only take a day to install once all the pieces have been cut on the CnC machine. Castaway Customs are saying that should be installed next week.

Once the Seadek is in the boat will go back to
Florida Signs and Graphics for any touch up and to fill in any holes not covered by the Seadek. They will also wrap the trailer at this time.

In the meantime I've started thinning the "boat layer" of crap, repairing rods and cleaning reels so the reload should only take a few hours.

Still shooting to put her in the water 2/15 to test the hardware after the reinstall.

Very aggressive schedule Lee. Amazing the Seadek install is such a short time. Thanks for your reply

SteveTX · January 27, 2020, 08:42:44 PM

I have to say my personal taste from the original pictures you were posting I was thinking I'm not to fond of that. But now on your boat I have to agree with others. It looks really really nice. For some reason it was coming across as gaudy to me until these latest pictures that show it to be really a lot more subtle. I like it a lot as if that matters since its not my boat.

Still had to throw my .02 in.

I have helped wrap cars before and when it is cold it can be a

. We always brought the vehicle in the shop and set up heaters the evening before to try and get it to a reasonable temperature. Also the wrap works best when at or near room temp.

They send a 2 man crew and say 2-3 hours is all they need to install, which was shocking to me as well. Once everything is cut, it is just a peel and stick install. Seadek has a pressure sensitive adhesive backing and they use a heavy roller once they stick it in place.
