I'm having some refit work done to my 23' SeaCraft center console. I'm having the hull painted dark blue with Imron, and I'm having the bottom painted with white VC performance epoxy. I trailer the boat and rarely leave it in the water for more than a few days. The two options are:
1: Treat the white just like the black bottom paint that was on the boat, i.e. follow the water line all the way around the boat. This would put white up the sides of the hull 3 or 4 inches and paint the portion of the transom white from the waterline down.
2. Paint the bottom white below the chine, and leave the entire hull side painted dark blue. The white would carry up above the water line at the bow as it follows the chine up. Entire transom would be dark blue. Example:

3. I guess there is a third option where the white follows the chines up the bow, but never goes below the waterline as it moves aft.
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Jeremy
