Thread: Question on black boats!

  1. #1

    I'm getting ready to buy paint for my boat. I'm realy wanting to go black. Anyone have any horror stories about having a black boat? I know it's hot but does it get too hot that it'll warp the front?

    Don't have any experience with heat, but the black will show everything. The second the boat touches water it will look filthy.

    Black boat? Never again. Worked on a black boat,(PS89), on a black asphalt pit, wearing black shirts and hats. Temp was 104, thought I was going to die. I have heard of black paint blistering at Havasu along side other color boats that were unaffected. With all the choices for colors out there, do yourself a favor and skip black............MP

    Black has its bad points, but if its done right you cant beat it. Race boat? Gonna be hot to be around.... I bought a canopy.... Dont wear black.... you'll cook like chicken.... Lake boat? Just add XXX dancers and keep them wet.... cools off the boat at the same time....:idea:
