Desert Camo.

 

Combinations of complimentary colors can have some appeal. We sail a French yacht and my (much) better half thinks French color styles work well, eh?

 

Agréable!

 

You might think about having access to OTHER colors as well. We have pillows, our cushions, and some curtains made of Sunbrella. ALONG with the typical on deck stuff which is in a navy blue. Probably the blue many have said is navy per say.

The cushions are a floral design, some pillows are the same, and a white and blue striped fabric also for some of the pillows and the curtains.

I also have a cockpit cover that goes over the boom on sunny or rainy days. Do not want a dodger or bimini. That is more of an off white/ivory color for lack of better way to describe it. I wanted something that shaded the cockpit per say, but would not allow the heat soak as darker colors do on a hot day. IT also allows some natural light thru if ugly out, so one is able to read a book, but still get shaded etc.

There are a LOT of things you can make out of sunbrella cloth for folks, that might make you more money in the short term if at various marina's than the main items, ala dodgers, bimini's etc.

Captain Navy

 

mine started out dark green ..a forest green without the black threads int he weave..
under the dark cloth in daylight in tropics is comfortable and cool. without it is a bit hot and very very bright , even in winter.

 

Persian green- and what's this business about it being popular with stinkpotters?

 

True Brown works for me.

 

I have a burgundy color canvas on the boat, however, it's called dubonnet tweed. I was told the burgundy color would fade out and look pink with age while the dubonnet has black threads which keep the burgundy color better.

 

We've got 'Ocean Blue'.. it's got almost a more purplish hue like the deep water 'blue'.. a nice contrast to the sea of Pacific blue seen everywhere:

 

We just changed to Maine Blue.

 

Pacific Blue.

Ocean Blue topside and the practically identical True Blue furniture grade in the cabin. In between Navy Blue and Pacific Blue at the first mate's insistence

Ooops. I thought ours is Beige, but I believe it's really Toast. Please account for this in your survey.

I only have a main sail cover that is pacific blue but it is in need of replacement and Navy is my 1st choice of color so I voted Navy.

 

Charcoal grey, but considering a switch to Black or Captain Navy Supreme with Linen Flock. I've been taking courses at The Marine Canvas Institute and learned how to do a Bimini. Next session includes a Dodger I believe. I've also purchased a used Juki walking foot sewing machine. I may experiment first with something cheap. The Dodger intimidates.

 

My Toast canvas just keep going and going. I recently reused a 7 year old awning (toast) to make spray cloths. We also have Navy canvas that has held up very well.

 

Black is the most UV resistant , by far.
