Default Which Way To go (R)Velocity230 REDO

OK I've been looking around for ideas since I got the boat, and now that Winter is almost here, its gettin close to paintin time. I've gathered a bunch of different Velocity pics from all over the web, including quite a few from here. My thanks to everyone for their photos; and my appologies if it upsets anybody that I'm using their pics. Just lemme know and I'll take them down. But I want my boat to scream Velocity in some way, I really want some sort of the V pattern on the hull; but I want a simple design thatt'l stand the test of time, look brand new now...and ten years from now.

HERE ARE SOME PICS OF MISC. 230'S

Although it is more difficult to do, I like when you bring the graphics above the rub rail a little bit. I like all of your examples

I fully agree, just can't decide what to do with the new rub rail? I want to do white, but don't want it to yellow. So thinking Stainless with black insert or reverse.

The all plastic (no rubber insert) rub rails that Velocity has used since the late 1990's haven't yellowed in my experience. They do get dirty often however but careful use of acetone cleans them up nicely!

The graffics you have posted up are off a wrap site arnt they. Are you going paint or wrap and are you doing it or send it out? I havent found any local shop that does marine grade wraps. I will either do a wrap or have some air brush work done over my graffics to give a more custom look.

No, none of them are wraps, except maybe the lightning.
