Mmm... I notice the women aren't saying things like, "Of course color doesn't 
matter."  Hey, guys, color (i.e. aesthetics) DOES MATTER.  

The top of my glass Gypsy is light turquoise and the hull is, of course, 
white.  Can anyone come up with something like a wide adhesive strip that I 
could stick on the bottom, say from bow to stern?  I wonder if the 
psychedelic flowers I was going to buy to stick on my van would work?  Nahh, 
just remembered, they're magnetic.

There aren't many of us women who are going to re-do our gelcoats in our 
spare time!  Anyone know where I can get some super-waterproof decals? 

Any suggestions on how to "decorate" one's "bottom" so as to be easily 
visible among the whitecaps??   (This should be fun....)
