Russ:  Many boatbuilders stay away from darker colors especially on interiors for just that reason.  Light grays, beige, cream.  The current build will have Kirbys #19 blue-very light.  What kind of paint?  I don't use primer- just a thinned mix of the top coats.  Your solution to the problem is "thinking outside the box"-and it will hide the fish blood.

Good luck 

What brand paint are you guys typically using for the interior?

I used Rustoleum Door paint, it's oil based ( only oil I could find localy.  Would not use again.  the next one (if built traditional) will be oiled inside and out.

 

wild....that's for sure...and the only out there! pretty original.
