LOL, I guess it's all about where ya boat. Out here ( on the Colorado), any black metal would guarantee a 3rd degree burn in the summer.

Dark purple with black rubber traction strips on top...never a problem. I'm here in the midwest and it does get pretty warm too.

I had a boat with a black platform and it wasn't bad. It was low to the water and got splashed alot. THe black on the deck however would melt your skin off.

Thanks for the help everyone! Black will look the best with my setup I just wanted to be sure it would not burn you when your holding or walking on it.

Thanks
