Skater was touting a new metal coating/treating process they developed. I don't remember the details though, but all of the hardware on the new Pure Platinum boat has it. It's sharp.

Also, whatever Apache it was that they spend a gozillion dollars on a few years back had top to bottom black rigging, flat/satin black.

I'm a fan of the look. The only thing that pisses me off if my windows are too shiny on this:

All hard anodized flat black. All the steel parts are on the motors are flat black also. Powder coat or paint with flat clear.
