I love that dark navy 'sunseeker' blue nothing looks better, just have a look at the White Shark next to you Joe as I saw her having her hull buffed this week.

If you want to see how International Perfection faired over the years, we sprayed my dads boat with it, sunseeker blue and offwhite on the main part. Preparing the surface is essential and so is a good sprayer which we didn't have, but you can see how it held up to the sun and elements. I think pretty well so far.

Awlgrip is considered to be alot better.

White is practical, dark blue is sexy......heq you have to weight them up!!

I used perfection on the upper deck and F/B. I rolled and tipped. Its a great paint. However, i'm inclined to use al grip for the hull.

Gaffer, I like the colour blue on boats. It gives them a sort of richness and a fantastic look. I have a Dark Navy blue boat and it's true that it tends to fade in the sun and tiny scratches will look bigger but still if I have to buy another one I would buy it again Dark Blue. This Year I've changed a lot of things on my boat (actually exerything

) and one of my projects was a new sun shade and a boat cover for when it's on mooring and I've chosen the LUNA BLUE and the boat matched perfectly with the Navy Blue.

If I'm not mistaken in Usa Blue boats cost a lot much more money cause the blue is the most richest gelgoat you can buy.

that's my opinion and Good look but the gaffer will look much more sexy in Blue after all white fades to yellowish any way.

I totally agree with fishfinder on this one, white will turn yellowish anyway and blue...... well just one word... "Elegance"

You should start a poll on this one....hehe

The boat i had before was Blue hull and white top. Now its white with a large dark blue stripe. I like them boat

both but I think I prefer white with a touch of Blue.

Hi
The gaffer looks very good in white.It look long and smooth in the pic at blue lagon.The blue is nice color too, but you have to see if it makes her sorth and high, witch i think you don't want that.
