The Stage98 viewsThe stage was quite large, with a video screen each side, and another one back centre. The lighting was superb, as was the sound. Must say though, the sound was terrible when Fergie was on, but I don't think anything could make that bint sound good.

Trim Tab160 viewsThe built up area on the transom to give the tabs a flat mounting area can be clearly seen. I'm very happy with the result, considering I haven't done any fibreglassing for 21 years. I did the painting using my airbrush (Pointless using the spraygun for such a small area), and there are 6 coats of paint - 2 undercoat, 2 primer, 2 topcoat.Apr 10, 2009
