Even though black boats look great in person they don't show as well on photos

For me, no. For my Dad, yes. He has owned many black boats and loves them.

Yes a black boat looks cool but thats it everything else sucks about it and you have less of a chance to sell it. Donzi built a black boat for the stupid Miami Vice movie and had to paint it to sell it.

The Miami Vice 38 ZR Donzi is still all black!

Did it get interior color change ? I remember a thread on here about it and thought they said they were changing colors to help it sell.

They did change the interior from black to silver but not the paint.

Well they are half way there.

The deck would look good in silver with maybe a dark red boot stripe

I'd be much happier if Mirage did the side of my boat black all the way to the back. Guess I stuck with the 1990 look , unless spend some $$$ to redo the gel . Black is beautiful !
