It started as a Spring project and finished Thursday night before our Memorial day outing.
The old Islander had an old grey dash that look more like a fishin' boat than a sport boat. So ........

Everyone was positive I wouldn't make it for Memorial day. Mark Schoenmann (Schoenmann Boat Works) did the fiberglass work and sprayed my carbon fiber dash panel. I don't think he figured I'd get it together to head for the river the next day.

Of course I had to do both sides to complete the job. Everyone liked the end result. Fortunately for me everything worked. [smilie=071.gif]

What did you do with your old gauges?

All the Faria gauges were in fine working order. They are available. Probably cost you half a case a beer. If you and your drink faster thn I do it'd cost you less. Jody drinks wine so she wouldn't be a factor. [smilie=265.gif]

I'd like to replace the guages in my 81. Some of mine don't work and they are mismatched. I'll take them off your hands. We'll get together in the upcoming week.
