Color determines the tone of a boat's interior more than any other factor. In your quest to make your boat your home, a home that reflects your taste and prompts happy feelings when you step aboard, the choice of color is one of the most fundamental decisions facing an owner.

Pictured are two visions of an M42, built by Morris Yachts. In the bottom photo, the interior upholstery and countertops are bathed in cool blues and grays with white accents, creating a soothing environment that calms the mind. In the top picture, the interior upholstery is a more vibrant green, with traffic-stopping patterned pillows in red and sea-foam green to make you smile. One space, two very different yet quite sophisticated
effects. Which one speaks to you?

Onne Van Der Wal

The cool, muted colors of this interior create a soothing atmosphere, one that's perhaps more suitable for long-term cruising.

CW is looking for interesting makeovers.
