If your into whipping your boat down every time you pull it out of the water white is fine. If you are like me your white Skeeter will look closer to brown in no time. I wouldn't ever buy a white hull again but I got a good deal on mine and really could care less what it looks like.

Hey Fellas...what is your opinion on the amount of white on this hull? Impossible to keep from staining over time?  Just like teeth you gotta keep'em clean. Look at Okie's boat and it's 10 yr's old. IMO red/white/black sure looks good on a bass boat, includes the one in your picture.

I wipe down my boat after every time on the water with Speed Shine and wax at least twice a year. Sounds like I need to pull the trigger on this one.

Hey Fellas...what is your opinion on the amount of white on this hull? Impossible to keep from staining over time? If I had my choice of colors, it would no doubt be what you've selected. That's an awesome color scheme. I bought mine on price, just so happen it was white. It ain't that big of deal to wipe it down, either. Takes an additional 3-4 min at tops. I use BBS every 6 months and it serves almost like a wax. Then the wipe down is simple and quick. Go get that thang and take me for a ride!

Thats a beauty...I would not worry about staining if you are taking care of your boat (unless you are guiding and in your boat all year).
Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.

My last 3 boats have all had white bottoms, only color I will ever have. White doesn't show scratches like black. I just wipe mine down after every use.

Love the color you picked. I will never own a black hull boat for the reasons already mentioned, but I tend to like darker colors above the water line.

My Nitro had a black hull and was 5 years old. Keel guard and being somewhat careful I had no issues with scratches. I am more concerned with the dark color inside the boat I have picked now but guess I will find out in a few months.

I fish Roberts and if your boat is not scratched you are not fishing in the right spot! I like the white better I am not a fan of black boats or trucks.
See you on the lake and have a great day!

Did you have up / down stomp buttons installed at the bow for your power poles?
If so, both on same side of trolling motor or one on each side?
