Default Paint Ideas Contest

I am building a 42 Fountain Poker Run this summer to run this fall and into the spring '06 season. Obviously, it will be a "promotional boat".

Here is the challenge:

I need ideas for the sickest paint job you can think of. It can be anything from old school solid colors to something that challenges the Speed Racer graphics.

Here is the reward:

Bring a friend and come enjoy the poker run of your choice in the new boat (as a passenger - insurance you know). Just get yourself to the run and all other expenses are paid for.

Let's hear some ideas.....!

We are thinking theme because it we want as much publicity as possible (of course). I think a non-theme boat will sell better when the times comes, but who knows. I think it will be a matter of just seeing and going "hell yeah".

Hey Bill,

I will be happy to help you out by coming down for one of those poker runs.
I attract plenty of attention.

And I have a Fountain windshirt.

Absolutely Fund. We'll get our schedules straight and plan a run. Are you going to bring a guest? I can cancel the Playmates if so.

I Always wanted to do multi color fade on the ENTIRE hull including windshield frame etc.... Like a pearl while front fading through a bunch of different colers all the way to the back... nothing crazy but maybe a pearl white up front fading into a gray, then gray into blue, then a darker blue and eventually to an almost blue/black on the back...

One idea that surfaced was the Sponge Bob Racing Team.
