Final Pics of amazing 195 Sport 2006 work - Looks Brand new!

[Skydiving195SPer]

Alright, I listened to those who said forget the stickers and I too think I should. So these are pics without it. All finished. I think that the tribal stickers make the boat look shorter and want to keep it how it is, however on the other side it has been very sunburnt and the stickers need to be there or it will annoy the living daylights out of me.

Also you will see photos of the sticker marks. Down the track i will get this gelcoat done again so i can have it without stickers.

bimini is also up, and cooler bins if anyone wants some, in any colour they like.

I also changed the dash for the later model dash with yellow and black in the gauges.

Boat will be waxed on monday after stickers are put on.

I am VERY impressed with this work and if you saw the pics of the damage before you will be too. This boat looks brand new and with the brand new seats coming, it will be brand new.

P.S. When I claim this to be 'amazing' work, that is appreciating the guys who spent alot of time working on this boat. It is not me being full of myself thinking 'my boat' is amazing.
Fibre Marine are world class.
To be really honest, they go the entire way they promise and further. Every other person in every aspect of dealings in life, actually, every other business, either does the minimum or they try to get away with doing less and cutting corners. These guys were paid to fix the gelcoat on the hull and thats it. they then did flo coating the ski locker and griding first, then the underside of the lid, then the flo coat in the bilge after sanding. Then replaced glove box door and replaced dash, carpeted the storage areas, made new coolers with all fittings, did every gelcoat crack and every little chip they could find. Installed stereo, installed new remote in swim deck, installed wake tower and bimini and nav light. then spent 4 weeks rubbing it down with wet sanding and buffing compound, inside and outside and about to wax it after a massive wash to the point everything is as white as it was when brand new.
They just kept doing everything i could think of wanting done and this whole time they were doing this their work was backing up and they are super busy and dont need any other work as they have contracts with manufacturers and are preffered repairers for warranty and insurance work. Plus they only have three of them there doing the work.
They went so far with this boat and are still going just because i always find things i need or want done and they will not let it leave until everything i can think of is done because they want me to be as happy with the boat as I possibly can be and you all know how you never stop finding things that need to be done, these guys just keep doing it and they are kind of annoyed that it is still there holding up other jobs but they are not letting it go until i ma 100% happy with evetrything about my boat. Which is pretty much an impossible task.

Sow ehn I say you never find a business like this, i mean it, you really do not and these guys are something I have never experienced in my life. All this while the owner and the guy who does all the main work, has a 9 month old in and out of hospital with lukemia, as well as otyher older children to be looking after.

This is also the guy who is making the coolers so if you ask me, buying coolers with all the fittings in the colour of your choice for $400 USD shipped (for both) is really someone you should consider if you wanted them.

The sad part is these guys will never know that I have written all their hard work down here for them, and probably would not care if they did.


They were also the ONLY gel coat or glass repairer in the entire city of sydney who would do this job and fix the massive entire front end gel coat cracks which must of been a 8 foot diameter on the hull.. Every single other person, and i rang them all wanted at least $6000 min to do the job in two pack paint and they all said it is because it is impossible to match yellow gelcoat. the only guys who would do it, and boy did they do it.
the only guys in a harbour city, a major boating harbour city of 4 million people. The ONLY place in this massive city who would do it with gelcoat.

This is why i title my post "Amazing work". Because it really is

Also big shout out to "LazyDaze" while I am at it. This guy is my connect for anything and everything I need.
When i wrote that last message out I started saying no other person and then changed to no other business....That was because I can not say no other person when LazyDaze is doing so much for me. Oh so much. If it was not for him I would not be having the items needed or wanted for this boat. Seriously, the guy got me brand spanking new Sport bucket seats from 2006 OEM in my exact yellow, grey and white pattern. I'd be willing to bet a pair of brand new white and charcoal Sea Ray sport bucket seats that nobody here could find a pair of brand new red or yellow or blue coloured sport bucket seats from 2006. The guy literally jumped into his delorian and went back to 2006 and got these seats for me. If someone can find brand new bucket seats the same as mine in the red or the yellow combination, then I will give you my white and charcoal bucket seats and pay for postage.. brand new, never used, one of those 2006 colour patterns. I am dead serious. I am willing to risk that cost to me by proving my point that LazyDaze is the baddest muthafuka on the planet when it comes to helping guys with boats out. (Yes i really did have to use a gangsta phrase to emphasize my thoughts. He is that good).

I got a boat and I wanted to make it the best version of itself that it could possibly be all factory, and thanskto these guys I am getting there. My mechanic will get a shoutout soon once he has made me feel like i have a brand new 5.0l V8 MPI in my boat, also from 2006. I did something right recently because I found the best of the best in all three areas....shipwright, mechanic and supplier. They all seem to be in it only for friendship as well which is so very nice of them all.
