    Re-painting FCT help me choose

    Help me pick a color. Getting painted next week. Sorry for the terrible simulations, don't have a decent program here at work. It is two toned right now and the lower part it royal blue, if you can tell the boat is navy blue. Does not look too hot.

    Navy Blue or Black. Match your stripe or match the windshield/rub rail trim.

              I like the white Alan. Particularly if you choose a Navy bimini with some white striping in it.

              White will also show less water spots, etc. - But you already knew that because you had white before :>)

                Yes, I am powdercoating it. I am also considering powdercoating the windshield frame, I talked to Taylor Made and they said it was no problem at all. I would probably go with silver to match the tower if I went with the silver tower. What if I did a white windshield frame with a white tower?

                  Oh yea, the reason I am getting the windshield painted is because the previous owner towed it with the cover on and it took most of the paint off of the top of the winshield.

                    On your blue boat, I think the white windshield might have been nice. But on this boat, I think
                    it is too much white. Need somehting to accent/offset. My 2 cents.

                      Go with the color of the trim stripe. Make the tower and windshield match.

                        I think the Navy tower looks real nice. But like bkhall said, too much white if the windshield is white, in my oppinion...
