Great thread.
I have a slightly different take.
Having had an almost all white boat once eons ago I agree there is merit to "less is more."
That said my take is that as long as the builder can offer you what you want - and you want less - then it's true.
If you want "more" and the builder cant do it then "less is more" is nothing but a euphemism for "I cant do that".

What amazes me is how few of the over the top paint jobs stand the test of time.
For those that can afford to swap out new boats every few years and stay current with the trends, God bless.
For me, I like a timeless look and feel. With all the "best paint", "worst paint", and "over the top" threads, I was surprised there was not one like this before.

The upside to production boats (formula, baja etc.) is the owner gets what he gets and usually cant make it worse with options.
Reminds me of the lime green Laveycraft tunnel "Holy Guacamole" The guy owned an avocado farm and wanted a green striped boat.
It was extremely well executed but ugly as sin.
