Hi All, Just completed our new wood boat finishing shop . We felt the main shop always is making mess installing 5200 bottoms, ( over 100 to date) that we needed a clean shop dedicated for varnish work. Took a year to complete working between customer boats and building a new home. But the wait was worth it. We have completed our first Chris Craft refinish in the new shop ,and will be bringing in a couple of barrel backs for varnish work. I still need to get some stuff for the walls and a few tool boxes. Maybe I need to hire Matt to decorate ? Thanks, steve

Very nice looking varnish shop…I hope that you add vertical lights to the walls it will make a big difference. And leave the lights ON overnight,
