    I say loud colors and avoid white hull unless you're on a clear lake! Words from experience!

    I second that! That's actually why I don't mind paying extra for a colored hull...I've had a boat with a white hull and one with a black hull....I'll never go back to white! (unless I did an all white!)

        I tried to get a picture in the sun, but it just doesn't work very well. Here they are on the hood of a white Ford truck with the December sun in the sky.

          I'm partial to the lighter colour myself. Either way, it'll look awesome I'm sure!!

            Both will look great. There is no wrong answer.

                That's pretty. I think it boiled down to wanting something a little louder.

                Well, the order has been placed and I went with red. I guess it would be all wrong to be the red rider and have a blue boat. I share the boat with a partner and he was OK with it. It will be unique with mostly all white with just the main section red metal flake.

                  I patterned my 15 G21 with the same pattern..but with the light blue. The new stripe configuration takes away from the bringing the color forward a little more....and the little splash of color in the bow looks good on the 15's... Just out of curiosity, I went to the boat builder to see what your red boat above would look like with the Design Package window....and it doesn't let me configure with the Design Package?? Just wanted to see what it looked like with the white window frame/vent. I choose the regular window, but some look better with the Package.

                    I don't know why it wouldn't let you do it. Here is what it looks like.

                    I know it is not that much compared to the rest of the boat, but I just could not bring myself to spend 4K on window vents for a convertible that always has the top down. I think with the bimini, the window frame will not stand out so much as the only dark area of the boat. I also think having the larger red base is actually better on this boat compared to the design package which makes the entire base of the tower white.

                      Yes....I'm with you. I like the cleaner window for your boat. I went back and tried it again on the builder...it would let me do it only after I selected "accent" and moved it back to white. I found a glitch....lol

                        I think the design package is always the same color as the accent. So you should be able to choose any color, but just can't leave it blank.
