Gale Force turned out great if a bit deep and bold! We tried Sea Serpent too, loved the color, but a little too teal or blue/green for the look we were going for. Here's a pic of the Gale Force...our home is not NEARLY as grand as the pic above and we could have used more white like on their balcony to soften it a bit, but really love it!

Well, we chose one at SW called Gale Force...I will let you know if it's close...it's DEFINITELY not Naval-that goes on really bright... We've purchased 14 total quarts of trial colors (body, trim and accent), so I sure hope we ended up choosing correctly. :) Thanks for your response!

I tried Naval too. It's a deep bright navy that went a little purple in full sun light. I selected Sea Serpent by S.W. Love to hear how Gale Force is!

Thanks to o\both of you for sharing your experience with Naval. It helps me narrow down my choices.

Thanks for the photo and color name. Our house is currently BM Racoon Fur but it was painted so long ago and faded to a nice blue gray. The fresh BM paint color is now a more charcoal than blue gray. I'm shopping around for a Sherwin Williams color that is close (we have stonework that matches so well with the current color).

I'm getting samples in Gale Force, Outer Space, and Gibraltar which all seem very close to the color we're hoping for.

Here's a photo of our house newly painted 7 years ago with BM Racoon Fur.

Here's a photo taken today - windows were just replaced - with today's light the house actually looks charcoal but it's the same BM Racoon Fur!

I have been struggling with the dark navy exterior colors for months. I'm so happy I stumbled across this conversation. I had picked out Sherwin-Williams naval and thought that was the one... Until I got the sample boards. I just wanted to make sure that Gale Force DOES have navy in it. Thank you.

It does have navy. It looks like a stormy sky color. We recently sold that house as we're in the process of building a new one, but here's the most recent pic we have of it with better lighting:
