About Barracuda paint
"A light blue paint. This might look good on a boat."
Barracuda paint is a Sailing-skill cosmetic paint released with the Sailing update on 19 November 2025. It is a rare reward from Marlin-rank Barracuda Trials (Tempor Tantrum 1/240, Jubbly Jive 1/220, Gwenith Glide 1/400) and is applied at the Shipyard schematics board to recolour a player skiff or sloop trim light blue. Application requires 25 Sailing and 20 Construction and grants 10 Construction XP per use; alternatively it can be traded to Trader Stan with four other paint variants to obtain merchant's paint.

Released alongside the Sailing skill launch as a Marlin-rank Barracuda Trial reward.
Market Strategy
- Item is untradeable - no GE market and no buy limit applies.
- High alch return of 1 gp - never an alch target.
- Effective acquisition cost is hours of Marlin-rank Trial runs, not coins.
- Demand sits with cosmetic boat builders and Trader Stan paint-set completionists.
Trading Tips
Untradeable - cannot be bought or sold on the GE; obtain via Trials directly.
Track Sailing balance patches - Trial drop rates have historically moved post-launch.
Hold one copy if you plan to chase merchant's paint via Trader Stan exchange.
