The colors are personal pref. but I would go with red for deck lights, just for night vision and that red doesn't attract skeeters. Never put them on power poles, but it is doable. Keep in mind the strips are rated as water proof, but that does not mean that you can keep them in a fish tank. I have amber on my trailer and Russ has green, just avoids any conflict about state requirement for running lights (no red or blue). Just got in some more remote control switches and have some blue deck lights done. Can make strips any length and color, just have to order them, currently have a blue reel and a small amount of red for strips.
Also have nav lights avl now $7 a set

Jim get ready cuz im gonna need some help for sure.
Dude, Jim cant give you the help you need.  You need medical help asap!!  You will like the red.  Looks good on my boat, and we have basically the same color scheme.  If I were you though, get your strips a little longer than I did since your boat is two feet longer.  I have the 13" at the bow and 15" everywhere else.

Can't wait to see these install pictures. 
Stop by the Garage and let me know if you have Maintenance issues that you need assistance with.
