one point you might want
one point you might want to keep in mind is that red oxide primer turns green when subjected to the sea over time.
a scum line would look nice to and don't forget fuel spills.

Yes, I have a nice big green scum line already. Really adds a lot of character to the boat.
I hope that's not overdoing it. However looking at the sides of the real boat shows just as much green slime as my model.
Now I just need to make the rest of the red look more realistic.

the fuel spill is basically
the fuel spill is basically a series of vertical lines staring at the top of the saddle tank and extening to the waterline and sometimes a bit lower use irridescent colors blues and greens and a bit if transparent purple of course I would reccomend that these colors have bit of silver mixed with them. and finally a light overcoat of clear pearlescant would make it all look good

Also would there be any areas where there are some dirty black diesel exhaust stains? That might look good...

Thank you!
As you can
Thank you!
As you can see I still have some sanding to do on the upper part of the boat (the white part in the upper left).
Since taking the pic that I posted, I have airbrushed a whitish haze on the red and then dry-brushed it for a 3D effect. I think it looks a lot better now. I have also done the same sort of thing to the props.
