The bilge on my 1955 is green. I don't have the boat close to me but I did have a photo of the color. It seems that they sprayed these boats before finishing them so the shelf and other parts where painted when I started pulling it apart.

Hi. My Sportsman is currently painted light gray in the bulge and inside hull. I have found a small spot which was painted green.
