Very nice looking boat you have there. The wife saw it and fell inlove with the color. Now she wants me to paint our boat the same. I must say that it kind of grows on a person that color does. So if you dont mond me asking what color is it and who was your supplier. She said that your boat is one of the nicesess ones she has seen on the website. Thankyou, Skip.

Thanks everyone.

Skip, the color is RAL 4008 SIGNAL VIOLET. The BOAT is finished in all new Gel Coat. The product was furnished by Express Composites, Inc.
I highly recommend them. The fenders & hubs are painted in a single stage Imron urethane and motors with two stage, base coat / clear coat.
Your local paint store should be able to formulate the paint using the RAL number.

Our Avatar is our 1957 Larson Thunderhawk Jr. that we use all the time. It is powered by a really sweet running 58' 35 HP Super Seahorse.
I'll gather some pictures and post, soon.

I have shown your boat pictures to some different people and they all have said that it was one of the best looking boats they have seen in along time.I can only hope that mine turns out half as nice as yours.
