Wally,
Money is not a consideration when painting Rum Runner. After 21 years with  
the factory paint, it will be nice to have a beautiful hull again. The DuPont  
factory rep for this area lives in our city and is working with the marina to  
assure that we get a high quality paint job. He has taken a special interest 
in  this project, which I am very thankful for.

Rummy, I  would stick with blue because it would be cheapest and
easiest......it will  take less time and paint. Yellow usually does not cover
dark colors well. I  would guess that it would take at least one extra
coat.....and maybe more.  We have a yellow J 30 at our marina and it looks
pretty good. It is a  consistent top performer in our A fleet. Yellow and red
sure look good on  sports cars.

I am sure you will love what ever you go with. I am very  happy that I got
mine painted lasted  fall.
