Help...suggestions With My Paint Job
#12
Jeff,
I would personally keep it simple. Most people (including me) these days are getting tired of the "busy" or "elaborate" paint jobs. The paint you are considering looks nice, but will it appeal to someone else when you go to sell it? I would think about re-sale value someday.
Sometimes when I see a boat with a rediculous paintjob I wonder what the hell the owner was thinking when they had it painted???
(I'm not saying the paint you are considering is rediculous.)
Here is a classic example of a Cig with a simple, but classy paint job that looks awesome and will never go out of style.

Jeff, the Cig in pic 2 is named Helios. Do a search, I'm sure there are more great shots of her.
Of course, I like the Maroon Cig style the best.....

Jeff,
If you are concerned about resale, I woudn,t go too crazy with the green. While it is a nice accent color, too much of it would be bad for resale (in my opinion)
As far as these monotone boats, while they are beautiful, I think that they are a little boring and something that you could get tired of fast.
