this is my grady, picked it up for $500 with running engine and trailer. started to buff it out it came out awesome, however I hate the colors and it has random cracks here and there. I started stripping the boat down going to completey restore it I'll be posting progress pix as I go. I love this boat and and will make it a beauty.

now this is what I've decided to paint it. I've looked at several grady's and fell in love with bahama blue. So I'm starting to sand it and gonna paint the hull and interior bright white, with bahama blue accent with awlgrip.

(DON'T MAKE FUN OF MY ART WORK) LOL just giving me a preview what it will be.
