Please describe the project specifications

This 2004 Supra 22' SSV had lost it's Supra super powers along the way. The boat owner loves the flashy bright colors of the boat and he wanted to make it even flashier than before. He showed up with a printed list of what he wanted and he printed out images of boat interiors he loved online and he hand sketched out the interior design in color. We put together some mock up designs and we drew on the old interior how the new vinyl layout would look. Once everything was approved we headed to Flash Town on this Super Supra.


What is unique or complex about the project?

We had to enter this project just because of the splash of flash. This customers motto is "the flashier the better." The boat was already bright to begin with. It's yellow, white with blue accent flames everywhere. But the seats, swim deck, carpet were lacking razzmatazz. I know, when was the last time you saw razzmatazz spelled out? Twice eve? So with clear direction we started tearing into the interior. Shame on Supra because they bolted half the interior seats in before they mounted the hulls together. So we had to pull out all of our tricks to get the bow cushions out and we had to be even more creative to mount them back on. With the new seat design, new carpet, blue and yellow Marine Mat, I think you can see this flash of a boat from space. The customer just loved it and of course got a lot of attention this summer on the water.
