Default Vote on my new Cig paint job

I have three "general" paint schemes picked out for my 1990 Cafe Racer. Obviously, any of the three would be changed to make them unique so as not to offend the current owners. I consider all three to be "classic" Cigarette schemes. My primary color needs to be red, with yellow and purple accents and/or airbrushing.

I'm having a hard time deciding. Vote away, and don't be bashful with your comments!

First, a current picture.

#2 without the "600" obviously. Your boat is shorter so #1 with round graffics might not look as good. Also the water line while at rest will be darker with #2 and will be easier to keep clean.

Steve - I like them all but #2 would be good for your hull. I saw it in person in Miami last year and at OffShore Performance back in April. It's an awesome color scheme and you can place the oval Cigarette World Champion logo in place of the 600. That would look SWEET!!!

Another option is how they are doing the Mistress today. Your color preferences of course...

Sorry, but I like the current paint better than those for a Cafe Racer.

the current paint is more classic and may not be out of style quickly. try a variation of a classic paint scheme. i think a lot of high end boats are having trouble selling due to the crazy paint that looked good last year, but isn't in style this year.

Does #1 come with the extra 7 feet of boat? (I'm assuming that's a Tiger in the first pic...)
