    Looks like a brand new boat. Did they do the whole interior?

    Yep, the whole thing! The raccoon damage was a blessing in disguise. :D

    They promised it in 3 weeks, I was optimistically hoping for 5 weeks, in reality it was 7 weeks and $5,800 (our insurance covered almost all of it.)

    News flash! Last seen in Svvski1's neighborhood, an insurance agent, hunting raccoons.

    That boat looks great. I love to see these old Dynes brought back to their original look.

    Your boat has amazes me since we put the 75 on it and it still hauls a load.

    I wish my insurance agent would come hunt raccoons for me! He could probably start selling coon skin caps on ebay and make up the $5,800. And yes, that was for the interior, certainly not the posterior.

    From the pictures it looks like they did a really nice job and BTW, very nice boat. Interiors always take a regular beating from kids, skis and the sun, but those racoons!! Wow!!

    Since we're talking about interiors, I'm curious to know what you folks out there use to protect your vinyl (other than racoon repellant)? Last couple of years I've just put on Armor All "new & improved"?? proctectant because it was readily available. What are you folks using and why?
