I am loking to purchase a new fiberglass boat. I was told that if the inside of the boat is white it will attract more biting bugs than other colors. Has anybody heard about this or is it bs.

I have a white glass boat and I HATE it. The upkeep sucks keeping it looking nice. I cant speak for hearing anything about biting bugs being more attracted to the boat, but on Devils Lake any color attracts bugs. One hint to keep it clean is fiberglass shower cleaner and a Magic Eraser.

YES, I am that foolish!

What color would you request? I was thinking about grey.

I personally would go with grey. It would hide some blemishes and be more forgiving with dirt, fish blood and crap in the boat. Every trip to Devils Lake that I take I have to clean the Northern poop and blood off of my white interior and it kills me. The only thing that white helps with is hiding water spots after you wash the boat. White also stains worse in the mid/late summer when the lakes are getting green. Just my $.02.

Hmmmm,Me thinks someone is pulling your finger or maybe someone has a different color they want to sell.

As far as bugs go just pack some yardguard,whether its white,silver,red it does'nt matter you have bugs once you get a little blood in the boat.

Light color's inside the boat will be cooler on those hot sunny days.
