No suggestions on paint. I’m old school and would try sanding, wet sanding and polishing original gel coat, unless crazed beyond repair. The colors you are referring to are Fighting Lady Yellow (or FLY) and Ice Blue. FLY is classic and timeless. Ice blue is:

Spent a lot of time on a friends 18 with a V6 'rude 200; console was in stock location.
Super fast on calm water but he really had to work on balancing loads to plane at lower speeds. Great in surprisingly large seas but had to really work the throttle. It barely self baled at the dock. He always wished he had taken the time to move console and other weight forward. If he had, he probably would still have the 18 instead of selling it then losing a 31 bert in a hurricane.

Some moron has already painted it black on the upper portion of the sides and the whole transom. Otherwise it would be polished back to nice clean white and new pin stripes.

Hopefully the pictures show up for you guys. Thank you for the color names. I bet a 200 pushed it into the upper 50s easily. A friend has a century pro tournament 1800 measures right at 20 and weighs 1700lbs with an identical engine to mine it is running 57.
