It’s terra over black. I think the wreath is a matter of preference, I wanted something a little less busy.

If you add "Done Wishin" on that open spot above your extended swimdeck, don't forget to arch the letters slightly for it to fit right.

When I did the boat name on my 240 I used FastSigns to do the graphic. I measured center, then used a straight edge across and measured the width and height of the space I had. Then I measured how much lift on each end to make it fit right. . Then I had the guy that did the graphics curve the entire thing accordingly and it fit perfect the first time. After he did the graphic he ran a copy off in ink I could cut out and dry fit and he hit it exactly right the first time!

If you have them just cut out the letters in a flat straight line it won't look right on that curved piece.
This is great to know, I appreciate it Ytmsn! That’s coming at some point, but I’m going to give some serious thought to design and layout. :)

Looks great as a complement to the sandstone stripe on the outside and the colored vinyl on the inside. It's always fun to see another example of how one can turn an "old" Cobalt into a new boat.

We are going with the same color combo/logo from the same company too. Should be installed sometime next week. looks like the only difference between our boats is the interior trim color, ours is closer to the Terra, not sure what Cobalt calls it. We are keeping the Seagrass but adding the Seadek to the first two entry steps.

I don't blame you at all keeping the seagrass in the boat, that stuff is really nice. Mine had the grey carpet, and for me it was just way too much grey and looked too monotone. Hence my wanting to go with a brown hue of some sort. Very happy I decided to go with the terra after seeing it in, I think it worked well. Its funny, one of the other posters mentioned the sandstone stripe and that was the deciding factor for me in choosing the terra over the mocha. Its a lot closer match in the sun than the pictures show. I think you'll be happy with it.
