Thanks and Yes the turf on all flat surfaces. The turf will match the Camo paint or very close.

They will not custom make a pattern just for your boat, but they have a huge selection to choose from. I'm either going with the old school Camo bbt turf or just a solid brown or tan. Not sure what I'm goin with. Afraid the old school turf won't match up with the old school paint job.

Go with a single color, lighter of the camo colors would look best.

I like my plain light grey. You could do a tan color and it would go with your paint color real well. Hell, put the turf down and paint it too. Apparently it holds a paint job well. Who knew.

Might do the tan. Thinking Camo hydro turf might be a lil too much.

Post Re: WC update building my barge 20/72 Dual Rig
I am having the same issue, my boat is getting build right now and I think I will go with prodigy bottoms for the color and was thinking that going camo turf might be too much, two different camo patterns look weird, vam't make up my mind on what colo turf to use. I am also looking at seadek.

Post Re: WC update building my barge 20/72 Dual Rig
The hydro turf would be the same design as the paint job on the boat but I don't know how well the paints will match up. We will see one Pete gets the hydro turf sample. The turf color is not big deal to me. It's not a make or break. If the old school hydro turf does not match up well I'll just tell Pete to put on the boat what he think will look best.

^^^ Good idea. He's been on point the rest of the way so why stop him now.
I went with camo because it doesn't look nearly as bad when dirty or stained. It's all preference.

I just like the look of Camo hydro turf but like I said it's not a deal breaker. Plus I know Pete is not gunna let a boat leave his shop if he does not like how it turned out. No worries. Just ready for my boat lol

It is definitely nice. I am still piddling with mine. Adding my own little stuff to it. Still trying to decide on the blind for it.

Migrator your boat turned out super nice , congrats !!!! From what Iv seen I love my boat so far. You could build a pretty simple blind that you don't have to unbolt Or bolt down . You just pull each side of the blind out of the boat. Holler at me if you want pics of the blind my lil cuz built.

I really like the Camo turf because it hides stains so well but drop a crew and you'll turn into stevey wonder. I have the green on the mud boat and airboat and blue Camo on the pontoon boat.

The Camo did not match up very well. Decided to just go with the brown. It's more like a tan color though but I'm happy with it.

Looking forward to seeing it finished. I have probably spent more time around your boat than you at this point. :)

How's the trolling motor going to work out with that lip in front of the mount? If you're mounting it on a quick disconnect bracket I can see it being fine since it will be raised up some but mounting it flat to the bracket may not work so well depending on which trolling motor you plan on running.

Your boat is looking really nice! I also agree that the solid color was a good choice.

I've got the transom lights going into mine and I think this feature will be very nice to have this fall.
