I've been looking through the SC brochures stickied at the top, and none of them seem to mention different color options- were boats only one color per year? According to the picture in the '65 brochure by Jet was that lovely puke/ avocado green. However, my deck is what is later called Polarious Blue and I am wondering if its original. Any thoughts?

I'm thinking the 65 Jett was the Robin's egg blue. 1970 had the pukey "Olive" green. Hard to tell from the brochures. My 1970 is green though, 1966 may have been the light blue. The light blue is a pretty cool color, green not so much. The lighter sea mist green isn't bad though.
