He's probably elbow deep in the stereo build.

This is all I got

[85 Barefoot]

sweet!  

 

Tighten up that hangtyte if you want to actually keep water off the cover, haha

[shawndoggy]

see those blue skies '85?   There are a few upsides re living in the desert!

(but thanks for the tip re hangtyte... duly noted)

[85 Barefoot]

looks great...is that a 22 or 23?

[shawndoggy]

T22 w/450, metal flake (black), SP2, surfpipe, heater, zero off, etc etc.  Pretty much everything on there but SP3 and a shower.  Prolly the most ridiculously loaded T22 to roll off the line.  Gonna have to keep this boat for a while cuz I'm gonna take a bath on it when it comes time to sell.

Is the expectation it will surf better than the LSV you just sold? Comparably?  I can't recall if the LSV was pre-redesign or not - I think it was pre, so presumably it had less draft than your new boat?

[shawndoggy]

Prolly not but it'll fit in the garage at the new house.

Ok  Sorry for the tease!   Here are photos from yesterday's unveiling!    Not been detailed or anything and darn it if I was so excited forgot to take a photo after the G4 tower was up.   Take delivery 6/03 since they are so backed up with everyone for 3 day weekend.  I will take more photos then.  Hopefully it will be a sunny day and not so cloudy and dark.  

 

@ORMailbuboater Looks crazy similar to my new boat!  No G4 or motor upgrade for me.  Looks sharp!  So glad I got the surf pipe.

Awesome!! My good friend has the same scheme but inverse. Both look great! The white tower really sets it off.

Really excited for you, Shawn. That sounds awesome.

Thanks @CharlieBeaU!  Right now I'm at the "what have I gotten myself into" phase.

I'd say it looks like you just got back to your happy place. My family and I are really enjoying the 23 LSV. I can't wait to see the great things you do to this new boat.

That's exactly where I was today.  I thought holy s...I've got stuff all over the place.  Glad to see I'm not the only one!

The best laid plans... my 12w6 wouldn't fit with the factory heater... at least not without some substantial mods to the hot tube location and fabrication of a walk through panel.  So I gave up and went back to my trusty JBL w12GTi.  not quite as much boom as the 12w6, but a great sounding solid sealed performer.  

Also had to fab up a mount for the EQ.  Unlike malibu dashes, the new axis dash has no room to mount the eq directly to the dash, even if you wanted to.

Still waiting on factory carpet to re-cover the new kick panel.

[teamerickson]

How does it glide through the water?

[shawndoggy]

letcha know tomorrow.

[ctvandy23]

End product looks great! 

[ahopkins22LSV]

Nice work Shaun! Kick panel doesn't look half bad all black either. 

[Raimie]

@shawndoggy I'm flying in to Reno tomorrow for a quick visit to NATC. Will I see you out at lake Tahoe? I want to see that baby in person!

[saxton15]

Dang @shawndoggy That boat looks awesome!  Well done sir!  How's the HU?
