18sf need help with hull color choice!!

[Snookerd]

Fred-I like the dark blue, but for wear and tear with the family, sun, and ultimately your son....basic white is a great choice. Light blue would be a 2nd color choice (my 23 was ice blue)

Thanks Danny, I was thinking that as well..main reason why going with the white to begin with...Ice blue is very nice too....touch ups.. dock rash etc should also be easier to touch up if needed with a neutral lighter type color!!!
Thanks for you input too!

Fred Blue is nice, but ice blue is pretty here. It has taken me many years to adapt to the light down here.

Cheers,
GFS

That's pretty much what I was thinking when I made the final decision on mine. The black paint that was on it when I bought it showed every nick and scrape, and there were quite a few. My color preference would have been a deep blue, but I didn't want it to look like crap after five years. The final choice was Oyster White, a fairly close match to the underlying gelcoat.

Thanks Sandy and Dave..swaying towards an ice blue or off white/oyster...original gelcoat on my Seacraft was also an oyster/off white color

white looks pretty snazzy with a black rub rail
