yes, it was. I wasn't sure how believable it is about blue hulls being
hotter than white ones.

I'll assume that was a serious question, so consider the following. The
first week or so out of Lauderdale the teak decks got so hot you couldn't
walk on 'em barefoot.

I preferred the Navy blue it had when I bought it, but it was
too hot inside.

Makes a bigger difference than people would believe.

Make a big difference here in Texas. Being a X navy man I had to have
haze gray deck when I bought my boat. Once it got to hot to walk on I
decided to go with white. Now the AC's keep the boat cool and acually
cycle off once and a while. The temp inside dropped 20 degrees the day
I painted the decks white.
