Chris,
I sent you a photo via your e mail. I'll copy the message here in case it's relevent to anyone else thinking about colors...
"My wife and I liked several of the other colors, but the problem I’ve seen on dark colored hulls (blue, red and green especially) is that they show damage and wear more easily. On the flipside, my last four boats were all white and I was ready for a change.
Also, the Cutwaters and Rangers use colors to contrast different parts of the boat, I thought solid white would really wash out the unique design features. When we were ordering our boat at the Seattle Boat Show we saw a Searay next to the Rangers that had this taupe color. Jeff Mesmer said Ranger was considering something like that anyway, so he found out who made that color gel coat and incorporated it into their choices. Our boat was the first Cutwater in taupe; I’m not sure any Rangers have been rolled out with that color yet.
One final advantage of taupe is that it’s a good match for the deck and upholstery colors on the Cutwater. I’m not sure that’s necessarily true for the Rangers though."
