Ok so it's time to put the non-skid on... I'm using kiwi grip, I have used it before and I like the product. So originally I planned on white (boat is freshly painted white), but now I am thinking off white for the non-skid. What does everybody think? Contrast in colors or not?

Use white, the texture will give it a little shade.

X2. Darker colors will be hotter inside as well as underfoot.

Well you don't need a dark color you just want a nice contrast and after doing many boats with white on white I did what your asking and love it. White on white is to much since your are a pure white as I am. I did a Matterhorn white next to pure white and I like it, has a little touch of gray and make absolutely no difference on temp some newer Hatts are completely done with Matterhorn white.

Look for yourself :cool:

The hatches are my temp hatches still need to finish them.

I also suggest paint instead of Kiwi I used it and it got stained and could not get the stain out so I stopped using it and sprayed the non-skid with awlgrip much happier ;)

I had a Contender that was white and light grey on the inside. Didn't have any issue with temp, the contrast looks amazing and also doesn't show dirt as bad as the white.

Dan I like that look a lot, especially in the cockpit. I am thinking white on the gunnels and foredeck areas and maybe a hint of grey/blue in the cockpit. I hate life decisions like this.....
