    Yep the evidence of the excess weight Glitter Produces just keeps getting stronger Gary would only tell that secret to close personal friends like yourself and play mind games with his competitors.

    I'm hearing there is someone who is experimenting with an Helium Infused Glitter that when added to the Gel Coat actually produces negative weight to make your rig lighter but still flashy and a well known Pro is secretly testing it.

    The Oil Companies, the High Performance Prop shops and Outboard Manufacturers are probably paying the Bass Boat Builders to push those heavy glittered boats to keep the searching for speed spenders opening their wallets.

    Truth is that sparkles hide imperfections. and over time a boat that is use well will have many.

    Silver sparkles hide scratches really well.....

    for the record, we are not a fan of those either. People buy what they want and obviously some are wanting those color schemes.

    That is one ugly boat. That being said when it comes to a truck or a boat I could not care less what they look like within reason.

    Ditto. My current Bass Cat is the battleship "haze grey", but it does have some flake in the black lightning bolt with red trim. Personally, I like the flat colors, but that's me.

    White is the way to go just because it is cool to the touch in the summer.

    I like glitter and hate lime green on a boat, almost as bad as I hate red on a boat! Hard pass! I like white/blue/silver with some of it it glitter.

    Flat colors can look great, but they really show scratches. Being at LOZ with all the docks/cables silver flake as your main is the way to go!
