Rent their two gelcoat tint books.  $5 each for 30 days.  Compare the
samples against your boat in several spots and several light conditions.
If you are undecided or between samples, err to the dark side.  It will
fade over time.  Also, if it is lighter, it will look like a gelcoat
repair.  If it is darker, it will look like a dirty spot.  Order the
closest match from Fibre Glast.

For reference, sample F155 matches my old 35-1 fairly well.
