What a beautiful and elegant boat Mike. She came out great. I love the contrast between the off white and very rich wood colors.

Cheers Rob

Thanks guys, really appreciate the kind words!  The staining did come out a lot better than I was expecting, but pretty close to where I was hoping.  I think using a more toned down white and black also worked nicely.  Thanks again!

Mike

Really nice-looking, clean, crisp model! Good job! So.... what's 'next'?
