Default Bort Porn for ya'll

been working on this boat this summer for the owner, its my new favorite. Its an older 24 Intrepid with twin 150 Mercury Opti's. It was originally a Wisconsin Fish and game boat that was rigged by Mercury Marine. When it got here it was all grey. The owner had me de-rig the engines so it could be painted. It turned out pretty good. Oddly enough, its propped wrong, its spinning 19 Tempest. Way too much bow lift and not enough rpm, it needs 17 Mirage Plus. Still ran 50 on the GPS

Looks nice, I would have gone with a white or black bottom.

I've got a picture of it in the water, just can't get it to load for some reason, the hull sides are dark blue, although they look black in the picture. the red bottom paint really sets it off when its in the water, you see about the same width of red as the boot stripe above the water line
