Default Gel color

Does anyone happen to know the exact gel color of this boat or a similar boat color gel code? https://www.speedonthewater.com/new-...akedown-cruise

I’d call Skater. I expect they’d be pleased to tell you.

Any Skater you see that is any color other than white, has been painted. Every Skater gets the same white gel coat sprayed in the mold before they are laid up. That 338 was painted years ago, Skater will not have any paint code to help you with. The best way to choose a color for your boat is to find a color you like on a car - any paint shop can look up the paint code by make, model, year and color.

yep . . . i actually tell people to drive through a few new car lots and look at colors. All you need is the year and make and most times i can nail a color with just that info.

thank you for the information. I know the complex boat are paints but assumed the one color boats were gel. That’s funny you say that about picking a car you like I actually want it to Match my truck.
