Author	Topic:   I did it again...
jay18	posted 05-22-2013 05:59 PM ET (US)         I do not understand why I see the need to paint all of my stainless black on every Whaler I have owned, but, I did it again.... http://s1287.photobucket.com/user/Jayachomeau/library/1989%20Revenge%2025%20WD?sort=3&page=1

andygere	posted 05-22-2013 09:35 PM ET (US)             I really like this boat, and the black railings do look good with the other black trim on the hard top. What paint process are you using?

egres	posted 05-22-2013 11:06 PM ET (US)             Well, let's see now.. Righteous model to be sure.. All black stripes going in the same direction. Politically correct color for the anti fouling. Love the hard top, very executive. Perhaps much stronger sunglasses needed when taking her out on those bright and sunny days as chrome has a way to tire the eyes when reflecting intense light. Dandy Whaler drive. But wait.. To keep to the color scheme politically right.. Looks like it does need a new 200 4 strokes Mercury. http://continuouswave.com/ubb/Forum4/HTML/000760.html Love the model, they just don't make them like that anymore.

My eldest, Price, saw me looking at the photo last night, and when I mentioned it was yours, he told me to ask for a ride this August. So, we're looking forward to a ride this August
