I know this is a bit like throwing a spanner in the works but...................

I don't think either of the latest options are particularly satisfactory.

Would it be possible to seek another manufacturer who had a more comprehensive palette.

I thought the version you posted on the 25th November was excellent. I think those colours reflected the area many of us sail in. I'm not sure that the current options do this.

Just a thought

Tend to agree with Ocklepoint - not in a particular hurry as boat won't be in the water until April- However realise this could meant more hassle for webcraft - in which case I would go with the mid- blue.

Nick just order the sodding things with whatever you think is best.

PS I think the sky should be pink

Edit - in the second one sea and sky look too similar so first one.
Or is it better the other way round?

I'm with you one is as bad as the other.

No chance it will be in my Xmas stocking then?

I doubt it somehow

Unlikely as my credit card has no doubt been debited for a wodge of cash . . . :wallbash: and anyway Prestige were the best combination of quality / price :wallbash: but Mr. Fried now says he can print them, which will be better all round I reckon - so we will go with the original turquoise as per Silkie's avatar then :wallbash:

It'll be better than TOP's bl00dy mouse anyway . . .

I don't like the Teal sky, though I can see the need for contrast.

Looking at their colour range, and thinking of Scotland, maybe the Silver Grey is more appropriate for the sky!!! :roll:

More seriously, I think that I would prefer a Teal sea, and Mid Blue sky.

Edit - too late with my post - I now see Nick's post that they will be printed. Hope Mr Fried knows that it rains most of the time here.

This whole seven page thread exemplifies one (of the four) reason why this forum is such a giggle compared to my old haunt of YBW. Keep it up chaps, I havn't laughed so much since I last saw The Krankies onstage at the Auchterauder Apollo.

I'm not really fussed either colour looks OK but if I had to choose I would go for mid blue.

Any colour will do for me Nick, especially the mid blue.
