Personally, I'd leave it alone - it's fine as it is, IMO. I'd save the money for me next boat. There's always a next boat...

I think you have this spot on, but I would go with a double console and leave out the rear box

This is the pigment, however you will need to add it to clear gelcoat and then add a little white gelcoat to it in very small amounts until you have the exact colour due to the fading from the original colour which goes quite deep into the gell on the Ivory ribs
