Every time I see this statement which happens often I laugh all the way to the bank. The other competitors boats are dated, faded and drab. It is nice to know that I can sell my boat for the same price as what I paid in 2002. I imagine back in 2002 my boat was outdated and just a Moomba but I now have the same value as all the others. Check out what the competitors had for boats in 1998 in immaculate condition. Moomba had a vision back then to be different than the competition and it holds true today.
People associate older boats as being drab and outdated and until the DD boats were phased out I had to tell people my boat is not a new boat. People associate metal flake with expensive and this is why Moomba went away from the metalflake in 2000 is because of cost. I looked at a MC Prostar special edition in 2008 that I was seriously interested in and it had metalflake but it was only in the special edition model. So metalflake appears throughout the years.
The down side is the ability to repair damage but I wouldn't know much about that.
Keep the blue metalflake and white going.1998 Mobius

wtf.. I got a lot of compliments on the pink graphics on my last boat
if I were building that boat, I'd do either blue flake or orange. being back out in the west again, I'd stay away from any color but white for the top deck tho. sun beating down on those darker colors makes it painful to the touch....'06 Supra Launch 20SSV-gone but never forgotten

Pink has totally come back. 2015 G23.
And Kane, you're saying to stay away from flake because it's outside the norm? Have you looked at your hydroturf floor in your boat? That camo is pretty "in your face". I went with Gray hydroturf that perfectly matches the gray carpet that's left in my boat.
Just goes to show that even you have things that others would stay away from like the plague. (Like I see all these people going with a peanut butter brown interior on new boats and I hate it).
Personally, I think you're safe with flake. It's not like it's the tribal graphics or flames you saw on the early 2000 boats.2008 Moomba Mobius XLV.

You can always get sparkle tape to add some bling to white spots and then remove when it out of style
