Gee I like the colors on that Commander.   Recently been noticing Alerion green - which is a little lighter and greyer than this boat's.   Haven't a clue why some colors look 'period' and somehow more appropriate - but I'm leaning away from Hattaras for 338!   I'm not smart enough to associate alerion green with Herreschoff.

Tho, dark hulls do look spiffy!

I typed in      > "alerion green <  (1/2 quote mark in front) on to  google - came up with three hits only.   Check out the Wooden Boat forum's rap on hull colors,  sounds like the fraternity over here.  Bop in on  Paul Gartside  and take a look at pretty salad bowl gracing  Tomales Bay, where the best tasting oysters in the world come from.
