[QUOTE="Ozark River Runner, post: 413369, member: 20678"] I can't speak for most boat companies but I ordered my Alweld un-painted for that same reason. I have some things I want to have done to it before its painted and plus a buddy of mine has a paint booth that I can use. Alweld has standard colors of I believe Green, tan and gray. To get one of these colors its not much extra if anything and I believe most boat companies are the same way with their standard colors. When I asked about a custom paint job, like an automotive type finish that you see on a fiberglass bass boat, the dealer was going to charge a bunch extra to do it. A friend of mine has a Blazer boat and his is un-painted and if you order a Lowe Shallow water series it is unpainted as well. Not sure how much you will save if you can order it un-painted but its a clean slate to work with until you are ready. [/QUOTE]
