New Lid for old Bellboy...

[Marvelous]

Check out new top on old Bellboy

Well i finally got the Marvelous back today with it's new top. It is tall but I needed 6' 3" headroom. Anyway this July will mark the 4th year on the total restoration from a complete rookie and one pro!

It has been nearly 35 years since the Marvelous has been in the water and this will be the year. Yahoooooooooooooo.

That is one fine looking boat. I like the idea of putting the seats on slides. Nice to be able to adjust the distance to the foot rests. Barry

I think you left out a few $ signs there John. Very nice indeed and to think I passed over a couple of boats of that style

[Marvelous]

I am trying to forget some of the $ signs. Okay a lot of the $ signs. Thanks and have a fun safe boating season.

John:

Your 404 is everything I would have hoped for you. It looks just spectacular! I am very proud of you for sticking with it and getting another BellBoy resurrected!! I am way into mine again with more improvements. I will post some pics later. But, this is about you and your great work!! When's the splash date? Pictures, PLEASE.

With envy and admiration,

Bob

[Marvelous]
