    Absolutely beautiful build, the craftmanship is just as nice as TAG Heuer themselves I have two of their time pieces and wouldn't own any other! You need to send TAG Heuer Corprate some pics of this, I bet they would include them in the next catalog. They are big into all types of motorsports.

      I agree. Kent had a vision with this one and he pulled it off. We should send Tag pictures once its painted. Steve @ Stephen Miles Designs is up next.

        Thank you guys for the kind words!! I'm over happy that this project worked out the way it did and that Steve is happy with the outcome. Its always hard to do something new, and also different size hulls. Would of cause be easier to do the same hull over and over again. As regarding to "TAG" interesting thought, could go both ways really, either they like it, or they won't like the idea. Maybe when its all painted and stuff it will make the right impression?

          I really think you should also submit that into tag. Looking forward to see it painted up, I am sure they will be impressed with it. Any advertising is free advertising!

              Hello All, ok this project is at its end, only left to be painted. We wanted to keep it looking as close to the previous boat (HPR) as we could, but since this was inspired by the V4 Monaco it had to be slightly different to get that feel. Here is what was presented to Steve, "the airbrush Guro"

                I am going to love this! Can't wait to see what he comes up with. I hope he goes real deep into the watch with the theme!

                  Hello All,
                  It's been awhile since I have updated this thread, but simply because the boat is now "done" and has been shipped to its owner. For the first time I have built a box/crate so big that it would fit me inside of it!! LOL, but all good, it worked out in the end. I also want to take the opportunity to thank you guys for all the nice comments/compliments and of cause Steve for letting me build the boat in the first place. Next stop is the Airbrush Alley, for a paint job. I have attached an impression of what I believe will be the final result. Hope you guys enjoy!

                    beautiful job. Wow, it just doesn't get any better than that. I hope we get to see some video of this thing showing it's full potential on the water. It would be a shame if the boat disappears to become a shelf queen. Run it hard! Congratulations on an outstanding job.

                      I'm sure Kent will vouch for me. I always run my boats to their full potential and some. And I will get some video. Kent did an amazing job. It will be here in about 10 days. I'll run it just to give me my fix then off it goes to Stephen Miles for paint.

                        @ fella, Thank you for the compliments, but it does get better, which is good coz it gets me going also. Just look up Christian Fischer (Sir file a lot) and your head will spin LOL. I have the gelly knee syndrome or is it lazy trigger finger? I sure hope she runs, as this is the first time I have built a boat and not tested it. Steve on the other hand is happy to test and don't suffer from any syndromes (so he tells me), why else would you have the screen name "worriedsick4u" but I'm sure he will pull the trigger and see what the "clock work" will give him. Once it gets back from the Alley, I have no doubt she will look amazing. Steve is one lucky dude! And yes Steve, you kinda run those beyond their potential, this is a pretty boat remember LOL

                                Thanks Paul! :)

                                The "coffin" has reached Steve's this afternoon. Glad to hear it landed there safely. Hopefully we can get some info of the maiden run.
