Interlux Brightside Poly - color 4381 Off-White is a very close match to the Carver gelcoat/hull. The newest version of this applies nicely with a roller, levels well, and gives a satisfying gloss. You can do roll and tip with a brush if you want, but I've gotten pretty nice results with just a fine nap roller. You can also shoot it through most airless sprayers without thinning.

hello TC
I have the same problem on our 390. What we did was take one of the inspection plates off as there are at least two, and took it in to have a computer colour match done at the local paint shop. We ended up with almost a dead match, very happy, and used a single component polyurethane semi gloss that we used with a foam roller and brush on the aft deck columns and the arches.
I contemplated spraying, but it takes a lot of prep-work and protection, so doing it this way you end up with a decent job that no one can tell at one pace away.
