My Ranger is 2012 Reata that I bought left over in Nov 2012 has the darker colors.

Any comments pros and cons will be appreciated, and I you wish to give you favorite colors thats fine as well.

My boat has almost the same interior Lund calls it gunmetal, but it has the same silver glitter look and I like it, was not sure I would when it was on the showroom floor but it is just fine on the water. Great looking boat bu the way.

I hope to make the drive this week to see the boat and if all goes well a deposit as well. I need to finish the deal by the end of this month, Ranger promotions ends.

You will not be bothered by the shadow mist interior one bit. It's not bright at all on sunny days. Most of my boats have the same interior. It's easier to keep looking clean too.

Overall I’m a dark boat color guy, but I do like the looks of that one.

My wife doesn’t fish a lot either. But I personally wouldn’t buy a color she didn’t like. Just went through this on a new SUV. I wanted black. She wanted white or silver. We paid a little more for a white one.

Those are great colors! The last Ranger I had was all white except for the side stripes. The boat was cool in the summer and easy to keep clean. Dark boats also get a lot of glare marks from waxing, every scratch stands out and they are hot.

I am the same age as you and I have been down-sizing every time I get a boat. I’m down to a 14 1/2 foot Alumacraft now. I could never physically handle the boat you are buying.

I really like that colour combination. Very nice looking rig. Get er done!

I can see that a ligh combo is the way to go but at this time wife is not onboard. I will see if listing on face book will get me a good response. The dealer trade In offer since boat is really at a discount was not close to what I needed to close the deal. I dont want to face the idea of two boats over the winter for several reasons.

Thanks to all of you for your input believe me it was much appreciated.

I had the misfortune of doing an all blue interior. big mistake as any scratch to the interior gelcote immediately shows white. and it doesn't take much to scratch it, e.g. a vacuum cleaner end piece. If I had to do it over, it would select a multi-colored light interior. The outside color is a different matter and I love my all navy color.

I really like that color combination. I originally wanted white. Unfortunately, it was an extra charge for a white hull on a 2015 model. Connie Hill, at Ranger, suggested the silver combination. I listened to her advice and am very happy with this color combination. I will agree, dark colors are much harder to keep clean.

Sorry about the upside down photo. Played with this about 45 minutes. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
