You'll be fine. Ext. paint has more UV protection, resists fading & weathering, and tends to have a higher gloss than Interior stuff.<br /><br />For a boat, I'd encourage exterior type paints for everything.<br /><br />Ed.

Polyurethane is another good choice, it holds up very well and is about 22 bones a gallon whatever color you want at the paint/hardware stores...
