I painted the bottom this weekend and added a boot stripe. *The stripe is similar to the one used on later V's, maybe I'll fool a couple people ;)

Thanks for the compliments guys.
I bought the stripe at West Marine for $40, 50/ft.
Cy, The stripe covers just about exactly the same as the original.
Heres another shot.

Looks great, Mulv!
Is she going to stay in the water? If so, you may want to go ahead and bottom paint the transom -- looks sharp the way it is, but that's where most of the growth occurs on my boat.

Looks clean mulv.  8) I've been debating about doing mine. How much of a pain was it getting off the old stripe and matching up the new one with the shadow of the previous one?
Nice fuzzy transom PD!  ;D

Brad, the old stripe wasnt too hard to get off. I used a hair dryer to heat up the old stripe and worked it with a plastic putty knife. A little adhesive was left behind so I cleaned it up with acetone.
As far as lining up the new stripe its pretty simple. When yoo remove the old stripe there will be a defined outline of where the gellcoat hasnt faded, just follow the line.
Pipe, I trailer her so no worries about a fuzzy transom ;)
