Another Matrix Project

This Matrix was a project I started in 04 and put on the back burner for a while, most of the items to be finished are small and simple so here we go. I'll post pic's as I go.

Re: Another Matrix Project

Did you seperate the top deck from the hull yourself, or did you buy it like that? How difficult is that to do? What is the easiest way to do it?

Re: Another Matrix Project

Yes, its the 1st Matrix we received from polaris as a kit boat. I had built the engine and started the electrical when I left the service department at Sea&Shore, since then not much had been done on it. The owner of the dealership has asked me to finish it up for his daughter, its a late 03 hull and was sent to us in a crate with all the components to build it, top deck not attached. This is one of 3 Matrix boats that I'm putting back together. The next 2 are superstock and might be converted back to pump gas boats, they are the original Richy Boats. We also have the Last Matrix that Dalughter built and it might be up for sale soon.
