Pros and cons of waterline color? My current hull is pacific blue. Wondering what it would be like to have it black or white?

Mine is the opposite. White hull showed the scum line, black covered it up pretty good. Guess it will depend on your water but black was far better at hiding than white in my lake. Every boat you see with a white bottom on our lake you can tell if they have a boat lift or not basically.

white below the water line will show it quicker as jason indicates but it will clean up easier than black and if you boat in a lake with sticks/stumps in it, the white won't scratch as easy if you accidentally hit something.

For sure white shows if a boat is wet slipped or not or at a minimum pulled out and cleaned routinely. I don't wet slip so I'm not too concerned with staining. If I get a small scuff on my black hull it shows up much easier to the eye than on the white. As anal as I am about cleaning my boat and toys I don't think the white is going to be too bad, certainly not as bad as keeping black clean with water spots lol. My main lake (Lake Mitchell) is is on the Coosa river but it's not too dirty unless after a heavy rain of course. I also boat on clear lakes like Lewis Smith, Lake Martin and even the smaller Lake Tuscaloosa which is nice water on the southern half.

Well guys we have decided on colors and I sent the build from posts 51 & 52 to my dealer and he’s sending it to Skiers Choice today! I was going to do a white trailer but my dealer made a great point and said they show rock and dirt chips the most. I told him to go with a dark graphite trailer instead. Pretty pumped and can’t wait to get a spray date!
