    Color Scheme

    Alright I am looking to all you Nautique pros out there to help out with some last second mind battles with exterior color selections. I am wanting to get away from all the same color schemes I have been seeing but did find one that I liked out there on the ole interwebs. Tell me which scheme you guys like. Thanks

    I like the top option better.
    New here, will be in the market for a new boat in the next year or two. Currently have a Malibu but looking into Nautique's also.

      Def the top choice. The only thing I would personally change, is I would do a grey interior deck. The colored deck REALLY makes the brown interior pop and IMO really gives the boat a more finished look. Plus, it's easier to maintain and doesn't show as much dirt and marks. It is a pricey option though. I wish Nautique offered a black deck option but they took it away because they couldn't get it to match the exterior black perfectly and that didn't pass quality control.

        I agree that the interior deck color looks good, but I would personally stay with a white interior deck if you plan on keeping the boat for several years. If a colored interior deck gets oxidized from UV exposure its almost impossible to buff the interior deck without getting compound all over the interior. For the same reason, I wish I would've gotten a white swim platform instead of victory red. Just something to think about.

          If you decide to go with the white top deck, I would try a white accent stripe to tie it together.

            White top deck would show less scratches. Colored top decks tend to show scratches much more than a white top deck. Something to consider

              I agree completely. I wanted the grey interior deck but every boat I have ever been in that had a colored deck showed scratches everywhere. People with bags, coolers, etc cause so many scratches inside. Definitely going to stick with the white interior. Thanks for everyone's input! Let me know if anyone else has an opinion!

                Alright this is my last idea..... What about this color scheme to match up somewhat with this G23 I saw. What do you think?

                  Can you get a colormatched tower on that silver concept? I think that would look nice!

                    It would be a rare occasion and colors would need to be just right (unlike the shades shown above) for gray and tan to look good together. Other wise gray and tan do not go together. Sorry for anyone that has that combination. It does not look good and you will defiantly limit customers when you choose to re-sell.
