Alright, so my pin stripping was starting to look a little rough so I stripped it off and did some buffing on the boat while they were off. My question is, do I leave the pin stripping off and just put the checkmate logo back on ( which mike gave me an original 86 logo when I had my interior done) or do I go back to the original look. By the way I still hate my windshield and plan on chopping it down some day. The pictures of the boat with the pin stripes are old but they are the only ones that I have of the boat in the garage.

I think just the name. the stripes hide the flake that's in the gel. cutting down that windshield and either replacing with tinted or tinting what you have would completely change the look. pretty boat though!
 
i think it looks better off but thats just me and it would change the whole look by shortening the winshield :thumb::D

If its polycarb replacing the glass is the only option. Unless you get the high dollar film for the poly screens. Maybe on the older screens they used real glass back then ? Then no prob.
 
Stripes are shot but you still need 3 hookers perched off the Port side.
Where did you consult your basic nautical instruction?
Sounds like a basic geographical misdirection.
Easily enough fixed.
 
Nice boat. It does look good sans stripes. I am extremely jealous of the intact engine hatch, if I may say so. Bonus points added for transom straps present in picture. As a side note, I am curious as to whether the ladies of questionable virtue would be presenting a stern shot or perhaps upper hull? That fender is going to have to be massaged a little though.
