    Default White Aluminum Boat

    I’ve never seen a white john boat. I’ve got an 18+ something war eagle and I was thinking of painting it white and putting on a light colored deck. Anyone seen anything like what I’m talking about?

    I painted one this light khaki mud color once.. not white, but I liked it. The biggest difference was adding hydroturf. It makes them immensely more comfortable in the hot sun if that's one thing you're looking at.

    Buddy of mine has a 2072 SeaArk that is white. Has a 115 Yamaha jet drive on it. He runs every river around here with it and has been a mile offshore. It’s a sweet ride

    I’d paint it a light grey to show less mud and dirt. Definitely hydro turf the topside.

    Light tan with tan or brown hydro turf would be nice.

    Ive got a buddy with a Xpress thats off white bone color. It looks really nice when clean but doesn't take much to dirty up.

    Definitely seen a few white Xpress boats. Lots of pics if you google “white Xpress Boat”.

    I bought an Xpress H22B in camo a few months ago and the predominant color on the used boats in that model were white and a color (red, blue, etc). They look nice, but I wanted camo and it was actually harder to find one. That being said, while its a metal boat, its not really a "Jon boat" by most of our standards. Its more of a metal bay boat.

    You'll have to wear white sun glasses to pull it off

    Stump could make things happen. He did a boat awhile back that was tan. That one still has me thinking.
