I have been vaguely considering the possibility that at some point I may think about the idea of looking at the option of maybe checking out the feasibility of theoretically repainting my barge. What do people think looks good? I really like the paint scheme on Vulcan - an old northern barge. Any other suggestions ? Vulcan:  |

I'm quite partial to British Racing Rust with the best points picked out in red oxide thus complimenting the streaky mud splattered dull black of the hull  |

I find paint is the best thing.

For me that green is a bit too creamy. The green on the boat to the left looks better.

But doesn't the fluorescence stick out like a sore thumb under a hedge  |

Vulcan is a stunning boat and the paint job suits it down to a tee, I see it regularly and stop to chat to his carers who are lovely folk

I'm not a fan of green in any shade..reminds me of a old workhouse hospital I worked in about 40 years ago which incarcerated treated elderly people...it was painted in green with green stripes along corridors..

Vulcan: That's some first sentence, particularly by your normally high standards! Re the paint. Battleship grey or possibly one of the Arctic convoy type camouflage. Job done. |
