I orginally was on #2. After seeing the colorized drawing, I didn't care for the gray around the top of the cap.
I prefer white on touchable areas.

The last drawing is very tastefull, classy and timeless.
Just one man's opinion....

Thank you ALL for your opinions! They all helped get to the final WINNER!

I am going with this design! She will have a white bottom with RED strakes.

I'm locked in now since it is my profile pic! 😂

She'll look good on a black trailer too

My old 20' SS that I rebuilt years back was just white and black. I had Kevin @ KMG Add the Red and Gray Stripes.

I can't get far from my colors 😁

I would do a red bottom or grey bottom over a white bottom. Think dustin whipples SV43 outerlimits with the red bottom. If the boat had a black or white bottom it wouldnt have been nearly as good looking.

Otherwise you have a lot of good top gel options drawn up. That just comes down to personal preference

Option 15 go crazy with the colors on the sides and other areas you won’t step on or lay bare skin on. Go white on any areas of skin contact.

Depending on where you boat this can be the difference between “hot” and third degree burns.

I’ll never understand dark colors in hot places where your step or lay a body part on. Might as well put your hand on a hot plate.

Isn't this your enduro boat? Slap some house paint on it and call it good, haha, seriously though, it's a Schida, all those designs look great!!

I'm with Teague_JR on this, the running surface can't be white. Maybe do grey with red strakes, or red with grey strakes. It would break up all that white on the sides.

Lee Spindler had a waterski race boat for years that had (IIRC) a blue bottom with yellow strakes. It definitely stood out.
