You do know whatever you get isn't going to match. Your dash is going to be faded
You might want to get hold of Searay/Brunswick, then you might be able to get it from Spectrum colors

Not sure what you mean by WB - the designation is 270 DA the other model available is the 270 DASE with the 8'6" beam versus your 9'2" beam. Anyway, Sea Ray merely calls that color "tan".
Like Thalasso said, you're likely to have some fading. How you go about matching the color kind of depends what how you intend to repair the holes. If you are simply going to fill them in with a two-part epoxy, you could get a small bottle of touch up paint from an auto parts store that would be a close match.

If these are just screw holes you want to fix it may be better to find a different method, maybe some type of cosmetic plug. Fade or no fade, trying to make a small repair like a screw hole to match is tough, and having it right under your nose on the dash makes it worse.

WB = Wide Body, with 9?2" beam.

Thanks, i will try to hide the holes somehow.

My plan is to mount a Garmin 721xs on a adjustable mount on the right side of the helm.
I may try to palce the Garmin 721xs so it hides the holes by resting on the helm right side a bit.

I?ll figure out something.

Thanks for your feedback.

Kind regards
Micke
