I just noticed your step around the emblem. I think I need a pair like that. Not in the way and they look good. Where do I find them?

Looks great. I like the way they supported the rear section. Follows the lines of the boat nicely.

Kevin- Those side pilaster steps were standard on the early boats. I have them on mine. You won't find them anywhere but one of the guys who redid his boat and took them off. If you do find a pair, you'll probably have to replate them, but they come out perfect.

Thanks for all the compliments !
Bob Lico: you are right on your comment.
Capt.McCrary: Everybody was asking for you. Event was GREAT ! More photos and videos coming soon.
I was never too happy with my bimini top but I was told that was all I could have because of my side entry to the bridge. After 4 years it gave up and decided to see if something else could be done. Interviewed 4 companies and all they could do was the typical "V" shape and skinny tubes. Met Warren from Admiral Canvas at the Ft.Lauderdale show and the rest is history. Finally a guy that listen and can think out of the box.

The side steps are all I use on my boat. The ladder never gets installed as it is just in the way.
