So I just put my deposit down on a new 16.6 Skimmer Skiff. I am having a hard time making my decision on a color. I have 4 months to decide so I am hoping yall can help. I have narrowed it down to grey. I will have all aluminum done in matte black. I cant decide on whisper or light grey. I will be doing one color. No two tone. My concerns are whisper grey maybe to light and light grey maybe to dark. What are yalls thoughts on the two colors? If anyone has pics of rhe two colors it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

Don't have any glamour shots but you'll get the idea. Looks very different depending on the lighting.

I've got whisper grey for my hull. Guide green on top though. All whisper grey with black aluminum would be sweet and simple imo.

Ok so I think I am going to go with Kingston grey hull and whisper grey cap. So I changed my mind and am going 2 tone.

I know but started looking at Pictures and thought that combo looked good. And the two colors dont seem too far apart. But maybe Im wrong.

That was my original scheme but the whisper is too bright for my eyes. It does contrast more in pics than in person and looks great with the 2 tone.

So you dont think Kingston is too dark? I like the look of your Skiff. It looks lighter than in some pics.

Not at all, came out much lighter than I thought. It does get warm but not unbearable when barefoot.
