All I can say is WOW!!!!! That's the same color scheme I'm gonna paint my v in. I'm gonna do a white boot stripe instead of black. That is one pretty boat my friend! Excellent choice of color.

Thanks guys, I am very happy. I will post some more pics when I get a chance. Thought about putting up a realistic budget DIY hull paint job thread. I took some photos during the process. I used Devoe brand products. 201 epoxy primer and 379 urethane for the color coats, topped off with 379 clear to seal everything , i.e. stripes and things. All 2 part paint. really didn't have to use the clear. The 379 has a great shine to it anyway, just wanted to add a layer of scratch protection.

That really does look sharp. Post those deatails when you can including volume of paint, method of application, tip size, and pressures, thinning %. All would be very helpful.
