Our new neighbors son has taken an interest in my model boating.

Eli is rebuilding an old Youngblood mono.

My young Protege.

Robert,

You work a deal with Eli on that 60 like I did for him on this 20 boat and I'm sure he'll take you up on it

Updated original post,

Couple of new, finished paint pictures.

Great to see another boater,is that the original flake blue? Youngblood built some sexy boats. I sold 5 of them recently and the flake was flawless

FloridaScaleBoater · Sep 27, 2017

No Mike,

There was "Prop Rash" across the bow.

We sprayed that on there, It's Custom Flake from TCP Global.

That is the only part I sprayed on there,

Eli did the body work, Primed sanded, White Imron and then Imron clear over it all.

Now that we have this one, I sure would like to have a 40 Youngblood.
