Aslan- Still haven't gotten to the engine cover, but the gelcoat restoration is satisfyingly therapeutic, since I'm a month away from getting it on the water.....

Beautiful boat on a beautiful lake, doesn’t get much better than that. I love the color of the blue water on Tahoe surrounded by The Pine Trees, just spectacular.

Always amazed at how well Cobalt's shine up compared to other brands. Looks great!

Your tinted windshield reminds me of the 22 Donzi Classic look...always a head turner.

I'm on the fence on tinting the windows. It looks awesome, but I think it would make night driving troublesome, and since I wear polarized glasses some tint is hard to see through. 95220, how is it in your opinion?

I boat too much at night to have the windshield tinted.

I like the tinted windows. I look over it anyways. I know Yt even standing on your little booster hair you still can't see over it. But to make it look really good you need to remove some of the windshields. That I'm not willing to do. Also the tint needs to get under the glass molding which isn't striaght and you can get light showing through it. So it has to get tucked under the molding. My last 220 looked like crap so I didn't do it to this one. Plus someone is always hanging onto the windshield frame and glass and it's going to get finger prints on it and get scratched then look like crap. So I'm leaving it alone.
