Administrators Horton Posted May 7, 2015 Administrators Share Posted May 7, 2015 Is this too subdued? It is silver metal flake. I think it will freak'n glow in the sunlight. How about this?

Baller swc5150 Posted May 7, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 7, 2015 Did you sell the blue one already? That color combo was sweet. For resale, I'm not sure metal flake is the best choice? Maybe too bass boat-like for a ski boat? Of course it depends on the amount of flake for me. Clemson Dave's last 200 had a subtle amount of charcoal colored flake, and it accented it perfectly. The amount on this Carbon might be over the top? Naturally, color is all opinion, but resale history can be on your side with certain colors.

Administrators Horton Posted May 7, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted May 7, 2015 @swc5150 a little metal flake is awesome. Too much is too much. My first two Centurions were blue flake and look awesome. It is just time for a change.

supersonicus Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Go all orange with black stripes and a 409. Orange is beautiful on the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted May 7, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted May 7, 2015 @supersonicus that is just not my style but if you want a Centurion with those colors => I will order it as long as you take it off my hands at the end of the season. That is a great way to save money and get the exact boat you want.

supersonicus Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 @horton Not this season for me, but I'm a believer in promo programs. Best way to get a fair price on a properly dialed in piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller lakeaustinskier Posted May 7, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 7, 2015 Several of us were recently debating metal flake versus old school colors. Most people decided that younger owners prefer the metal flake and older owners prefer the traditional "flat" colors. Another example might be the two decal options for the CC 200 - e.g. do you prefer the old school look or the gradient graphics? Personally I prefer some flash and style for my boats (I'm 49).

Administrators Horton Posted May 7, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted May 7, 2015 @Than_Bogan I think the first one will look boring in the shade and when the sun hits it BOOM!

Baller aupatking Posted May 7, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 7, 2015 I like the light grey. Black burns, literally. Down on the gulf coast I see all these idiots getting black powder coated leaning posts on their center console fishing boats. You absolutely cannot touch them when the sun's out. They both look great, I just try to stick to the lighter colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ForrestGump Posted May 7, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 7, 2015 The best boat I ever owned was an 05 nautique that was all white with silver metal flake pinstripes. Very similar to the first one. Everyone who ever saw that boat commented on how awesome that color combo was.

Baller Not_The_Pug Posted May 8, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 8, 2015 The silver looks great in the sun. Nor Cal promo Centurion had the metal flake grey center stripe last year and it looked great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller 6balls Posted May 8, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 8, 2015 @shaneH love it. @horton the second one black hull. Bro Jim had a MC like that and the black hull makes it disappear and the boat looks artificially low to the water which is really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chef23 Posted May 8, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 8, 2015 I would go with the first one although if it was for my lake I would buy the second one. The black hides the stain from our lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller swc5150 Posted May 8, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 8, 2015 I think silver top stripe, black bottom stripe might look great. Like Dave said, the black disappearing into the water would make it look baddass. Silver top stripe, with the rest white might look awesome too?

Baller santangelo Posted May 8, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 8, 2015 @Horton, some photos to help decide. The lighter colored boat was a 5.7L 2014, the darker one is the 6.0L 2015. Hard for me to pick which one I like better, but the 'clean' white look was well received at Okee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller RAWSki Posted May 8, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 8, 2015 I thought I was going to really like the silver with black but I have to say silver and white looks very sharp. I was a fan of the original carbon fiber sides but I don't think that is an option any more. John have you asked or considered a different color Centurion emblem on side?

Baller oldjeep Posted May 12, 2015 Baller Share Posted May 12, 2015 Of all the ones I've seen, I think this is my favorite color scheme. (Not shocking since it is basically the same color scheme that is on my boat) Not sure why you buy a 50k+ boat and then put mail box numbers on it but the colors look good. http://www.ski-it-again.com/php/skiitagain.php?endless=summer&topic=Search&category=Promo_Boat&postid=29282 As for all the glitter, not a huge fan - but it must be tough to order a boat and be worrying about what the next guy is going to be looking for.
