is it above the rub rail or below it? is the boat blue and white or light grey? hard to tell on 640 by 480 vga resolution. if white, no whiter than hull color or upholstery. the royal blue to match center strip is a thought. what grey? charcoal? automotive primer? or something in between. gloss, metallic,what finish?

My preference in looking at your photos would be the gray that matches the boat where it will be attached. If matching gray in color, it wouldn't "detract" from the boats lines creating a focal point and it would accentuate your current graphics.

So made up my mind and purchased the swim platform from Aluminum fabrications... I just received the powder coat color sheet and they need a color choice by Friday. Im torn between the grey and white gelcoat on my boat.. Im just a very indecisive person and cant make up my mind. What do you think?
Thanks fellas

Well... looks like Ill be going with grey. Thank you for all the comments and suggestions! Appreciate it!! Very excited for this addition to the boat... cant go wrong adding real estate to the water! Just getting in and out of the boat will make a world of difference at the sandbar.
Harleybagger, yeah its from Aluminum Fab. in ohio. Ask for Nick if you call. Hes been awesome with work with on this project. Cost depends on how much extras you want and its a 2-3 week turn around time.
