I was emailing a friend of mine about the restoration I am going to do this winter and one of the subjects was color….
I have a 17” mod V with console steering. When I do start on this boat, I am gong to redeck the whole thing and move the console to the center and forward just a bit, probably make it a standing steerer…
Anyway, the boat will be striped to the haul. My plan was black for the sides and bottom and charcoal and gray two tone interior. He thinks I should strip the sides and polish the aluminum… I think that would be a lot of work to do and a lot more work to maintain… he is really hot on this idea, but I just ain’t so sure. I mean it would look cool to have the boat a shinny as chrome, but I just don’t see it lasting.
Any opinions? Anyone done this?
