Joe, that color is very forgiving. It was one of the reasons I bought the boat. My first C&C 24 was Stars and Stripes Blue as well. I was in the Arctic running a clinic when I saw a pic of the 30 I now own....maybe it was the familiarity of the color. Anyway, via satellite link I talked to the owner and bought it. Never even saw it....what could go wrong? She needed work, I knew that, and it took me 8 weeks working on her everyday to bring her around summer 2007.

That color doesn't show rubs, scrapes etc as clearly as a darker color...good compromise.

PS, I love the 35 and the 40. Good boats.
