I decided to give the spartan a paint job. I had painted the hatch put did not like the color so I sanded it down and priimed it but it cracked right up, I also cut about a 1/4 inch off the back area for a different look. I do have a new hatch on the way.. I also installed an auto bailer to help get water out of the hull.

I tried using some molding from the hobby shop, I think I need to go with thinner next time.

I redid the windshild with some airplane black I had and redid the trip and added a bit more. Color is a lot better in person. The blue is Navy.
