      who won? hey, jameshawk. so exciting. have you had a black bottom boat in the past? they are pretty and i love the colors! i had a black bottom 220 a while back. mine got scratches in it and i also found the black hard to care for. for some reason, i could easily see swirl marks on it from the polish(boat was all black). now, that may very well be my fault, because i am an inpatient waxer. since that time, i have always had white on the bottom. my boat stays on a lift year round, so it can look pretty dull after a bit. but gosh, you gotta love black and red. beautiful. tough choice. but, a nice problem to have. good luck!

        My vote is the red main stripe with red metal flake. If you opt for the black main stripe, black metal flake.

          myself, i would not have that dark of vinyl color inside for fear of it being hot in sun.

            I have been in some G23's before on some very hot days and haven't actually had a problem with that. I am personally liking the second one better overall though.

              Yep, more or may not be hot...but someday when you go to sell people may avoid it due to thinking it would be hot...

                Of the two I have to go with the second boat. Might not look bad if you changed the forward stripe to black IMO. But they are both gorgeous boats; I am a sucker for red/black, and silver/orange.

                  I have thought about making that part black, I just don't think I can commit to that much black lol.

                    Yeah that whole part black with ANY color looks great on the G23. I saw one with the accent stripe was lime green and it actually looked AWESOME.

                      Just saw this G25 that N3 has that has the same color scheme I am looking at only with a red flake instead of the regular.

                        My wife and I vote for the second one...looks less aggressive, but more elegant. Either way, congrats on the great purchase!
