    It obviously needs a wrap. Something like multicolored neon fractals, SUPER big BABz logo in old English font, and maybe some clock gears or plated rivets somewhere in the mix.

    Seriously though, I think it would be sick if you got some of the RZ chromax decals and put them in the recess just under you front ballast drain/vent thru hull. After decals removed of course. I'm not a photoshop guy but I bet it would look good. Who cares about the 4.
    Only downside is I dont think there are mirrored RZ logos so it would read front to back on one side and back to front on the other.

      Depending on how much time it has spent in the sun, I’d expect some degree of color difference. Buffing eliminates a lot of the difference, but not all of it.

        Mines a ‘15 and I didn’t notice any discoloration at all. I started with a small section to ensure it wasn’t noticeable.

          I think the photo with Babz in the back is one of the sleakest looking boats I have seen in awhile.
          Looks aggressive and fast!

          I would leave it naked for a year and see what you think.

          You might end up putting something on it after the years up because you might get tired of people stopping you to tell you how nice it looks.

            I pulled the trigger last night. It was actually really easy to do. Didn’t even use a heat gun. No fading at all. I LOVE it.

                Thanks! The grey is a little more pronounced in person. I really like the way it came out. What pushed me over the edge is some of the decal was starting to peel and bubble.

                  Not sure how I missed this comment. I could always add some fast and furious type decals [emoji23] . We’ll have to see about adding something else like the chromixes. I’m really digging how it looks just plain!

                    It looks freaking great man. I love clean white boats, so this is just AWESOME. Good call. We have a customer with almost the exact boat as your, minus windshield tint, and I am going to have to show him these pics next time he is in. Hes got a dock hickey right in one of the graphics that could finally get repaired as well . I showed the pics to some of the boys here at the shop and they all dug it as well.

                      Thanks for the kind words. This just confirms my love for minimal graphics/designs. It’s not everyones cup of tea. But it’s def. mine. I will get some better pics when I get a chance. Boat is actually pretty dirty in these. Been sitting in the water for a few weeks because of the trailer problems. So it has a lot of hard water build up. But oh baby is my OCD happy those peeling graphics are gone.

                      Edit: here’s a pic to give everyone the shivers...

                            Any suggestions for chemicals for the boat bottom cleaning ?

                              I like CLR. Other use muriatic acid. It will take of yellow stains real quick. I dont like using muriatic when the boats on the trailer though as the HCl can wreak havoc on paint (gelcoat is a lot tougher).
