IMTEC was a blast. When the left coast people came it tended to get pretty wild. The Sleek people were all nuts

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

Once again Razor has hit it out of the park.

I dont agree that the color is teal.

I knew someone would challenge "teal" as a descriptor. But color wheels are not absolutes. I ran the photo in the article past two boat painters one longtime fashion industry business person, and all agreed the color is teal.

But I'm certain people of differing opinions can be found.

Just for fun, differing examples of teal, https://www.google.com/search?q=exam...w=1536&bih=810.

Unique—meaning one and only—as a color choice? No. But original as applied to a Skater catamaran in combination with other colors? Definitely, at least the definition of the word as applied to the project at hand.
