5.4m SR rebuild

[benjytaylor]

Yet another rebuild in flow, just thought I would ask the question, what colour would go well on the deck of my sr 5.4. It has blue toobes and white console and jockey seats. 2pack grey primer is going down once we have finished classing the deck where we removed the raised section for the centre console.
My thoughts are grey or white. White and black, I'm not really sure so suggestions would be great

It's hopefully going to look the same as these two i have finished

[benjytaylor]

Forgot to mention, the seat is up for grabs and I have the yammie on eBay for sale
Yamaha 80hp eBay 271225174229
The seat also has a full blue cover made to fit. I'm after sensible offers and I'm happy to stick either on a pallet an send at cost :-)

I'm going for a black anti slip flow coat on the deck of my SR4, hopefully wont show the much as much as the white deck on the Revenger

[benjytaylor]

The deck is semi black at the minute. Has allot of patches from wear an tear but I can't seem to feel the love for it 😏 when I put the console an seats on.
Perhaps after the grey primer it will give me a good idea
Nice 4m sr. Have you got a good lump going on her?

hmmmmmm......... I've looked at a few options, at the moment I'm thinking of a Honda 50hp, I like the Honda 150 on our Revenger, it's really nice n quite and cheap on fuel, but like everything else depends on price

[benjytaylor]

Yeah Hondas are great! The 3 cylinder yammie 40hp autolube works well on mine. 80kg. It does 30knts perhaps because I have the heaviest console in the world on it (ex Atlantic 21) 😏

Quick update,

Searider is having a white deck as we speak, hopefully it will stay white for more than a week.
Console is being prepared and 2 pack white

looking great, worth the effort

[benjytaylor]

Thanks.

Should have noted that the deck was sanded back and te second white photo was the next layer of white undercoat.
Top coat next then to concentrate on the electrics, console, hydrolocs, fuel, etc etc
