I just got in a new 21 Liberator. Going to Australia

very nice and that price sounds good too comparing it to what I've been quoted for just a normal every day paint job.
 
I painted cars and did frame-off restorations for 25 years. There's more steps in doing the cars to get them perfectly straight. I don't do cars anymore.
 
Not to highjack, but here's a 21 Cougar that I've been restoring - Randy helped me out a bit with the painting process and I had a local guy up here in Ottawa do it - pretty good I think for his first boat! My plan was to match the Merc Racing colours on the 300xs, and I used House of Colour candy paints. I was there the night the colours started going on and literally s##t myself when the orange started going on - it looked totally pink under the fluorescent lights - I panicked and told the painter to cover it with the darker red. So, I ended up with more red than I wanted. Oh well. I've ordered custom "Mr. Horsepower" decals, and a big one is going on right where Randy has his emblem. Should finish it off nicely!
