We've been going back and forth or our vinyl choices in our new A22. The bulk of it will be cement, we picked the silver textured accent, and we picked light graphite as our gel coat accent. The gelcoat is tricked out type with the base being vapor blue and the accent charcoal metallic flake. we love the outside and with the tricked out type alot of that vapor blue will end up in the interior. we thought having vapor blue as the vinyl accent would be just too much blue. It is typically triple digits most of our summer, so we dont want anything dark. does anybody have some pics of a light graphite interior or comments? moonbeam just seemed to look exactly like cement on the swatches at the dealer.

We have been playing with colors for months now. We decided on charcoal main with vapor blue accents on the tricked out scheme. We don't have the option of triple digit temps so we went with mostly vapor interior, attached is a link of what we chose.

Nice...I'm sure the extra vapor blue vinyl main cushion, driver's seat, and side panels was an up charge not normally found on the build sheet correct?

It is found on the build sheet, it was only $400 to do, I think it will look dynamite!

Kirk, love your interior. Trying to find the cartoon pics of ours. We hit 100+ routinely and were concerned about color

We decided to go with cement as the main color. Our boat now has white for everything and we hate it

It was hard finding base colors of cement. It is a fine line in pictures between white and cement, seeing it in person would defnitely help. cement seems like it would be better for hiding dirt and scum.

Kirk, looks like we have the exact opposite problems i need an interior with little to no vapor blue and you want all you can get, haha. I do think your interior is really gonna make your a22 stand out.
Im worried that since 95% of my gel coat is vapor blue it will be just to much on the interior. We thought we wanted a white interior expecially with our gel colors, the dealer kept handing me the cement swatch and shaking his head. We saw the light after about 30min. looking through all their floor models and cement it was.

sounds like there are quite a few new boats being ordered and built over the next couple months. I cant wait to see pics of all of them.
