"leftover RedHand look in the engine bay" -Does it sound to you like I'm not familiar with RedHand? Yes, I am mildly offended by the color
No, sorry. I wasn't familiar with the term/brand/color RedHand. I don't particularly like the color myself in general, but it needs to compliment the gorgeous wood on deck and the rest of the boat without outshining IMO.

Completely unnecessary post, in my opinion.

Why are you calling him a 'sheep' for going with a traditional color? I think it's quite appropriate for the purpose. Obviously a lot of other people think the same, or it would never have hung around long enough to become a tradition....

If it doesn't fit your personal tastes, deal with it instead of getting petty and insulting. It isn't your boat, and I'll bet you can't even see it from your house.

I think he may have actually been pointing out MY pettiness with that post... I undersatnd trying to match a color. I wouldn't do it but I'm glad to hear there is a purpose!
