Nick, one other gel coat color I have seen and was also considering for ours that may last is an ice white/blue. I am not describing it very well. A very light shade of blue that almost looks white at some angles. With a blue boot strip would be sharp.

Edit: check out the video that Doug just posted of the 43. I only watched the first 10 minutes, but it looks like the hull may be the ice blue color I am trying to describe. Or, it’s an optical illusion and it’s white.
Bill, thank you very much!! Yes, it is indeed a Helmsman for which I've signed a purchase agreement (details to come soon!).

Thank you for the suggestion! I'm going to check it out and ask Scott about it!
