Hi Bob,I have a 250 on my 69 16. The color looked to me to be a very light shade of green almost white. I bought a can of volvo white from volvo. They said that is the color. It was a terrible match. It was way too green. I then bought a can of tempo volvo white from west marine. It is a perfect match.You probably have 280's on your boat. If they are more green than white than the volvo paint will be ok, If not
the tempo paint is a great match.

Thanks Don, I was going to have them painted by a local fiberglass guy, but the price seems high $400 - $600 each :eek: . So I think I may buy a DA and a paint gun and do it my self.
