I say you go for it Ryan but I`m just sayin.... Erica never believed me when I said it was (you know who) because she said "can`t be, that boat looks way shorter than ours". Optical illusion.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]534021[/ATTACH]I would have to agree with Dan on the opitical effect on the boat . What you might consider is not painting the hull sides blue and just doing the transom to match the boot strip. My flat deck is white with the red boot strip and I painted the transom black because the old white transom got dirty fast . Carbon makes a mess and is a pain to clean. .I actually did it black gel with duratech 90 added to give the gloss .
