WOW... just went all the way thru that Mako redo BS posted above...what a job... 8)...I'd like to take a year off and go work w/that guy...maybe learn half of what he knows...don't know about you guys, but that's impressive stuff... ;D
You're right, Stinky...all things being relative, the amount of work we did is nothing... ;) :D...like to see what that guy could do w/a certain '74 V20 I know about... ::) Thanks, BS...that was neat...

That was a heckofalota work.
Seems like a catch 22 you know...a man with all that time surely had the money to buy new, don't you think? If his time is considered money, I bet he didn't save much. That is one sweeeeeeet Mako though! Dude, if he can flip that big ol boat, I think you can tip the V20 ;)

BR...I might be wrong, but I don't think a guy like that is out to save as much as he's out to create...in this case, create exactly the boat he wants and thumb his nose at present day boat makers who think "Eurostyle transoms" are what the market wants... ::) :P...somebody w/that much talent HAS to use it some way....he's an artist... ;) ;D
I e-mailed them to see if there are any finished project pics comin'...I'd like to see some... 8)...

I agree, with you RA. He is most definitely not saving or TRYING to save any money. He is doing it just to do it and be able to have somethin he created. if I where wealthy and didnt have to work I am afraid I would be the same way. I wonder if he could close in a v20...ta know with a built in cabin and hardtop.....that would be SWEEET!!!

V 20 w/a pilot house...hmmm...you'd have to be carefull...sounds like it could get a little bow-heavy...then you'd have to counter-balance w/twin 4-stroker 115s on a bracket....hmmm ::)

SH, there was a V-20 in my harbor last summer that had a 1/2 tower on it. I think it looks pretty good, a little top heavy but not as much as you might think. I need to find out if she was just passing through or berths there and try to capture it on camera this year.
