Default Sketchup model shows wrong colors

I have found this nice coaster on Google 3D warehouse, but when I want to use it in a Flexsim model, different colors become a bordeaux red kind of color. Anybody an idea what is going on and how to solve it?

It looks like that the bottom of the shape is used for the hull. The problem should be solved if you open it in SketchUp and give the complete hull a new color.

Greetings

Hi Carsten,

Thanks!. I didn't look at the bottom of the ship otherwise I might have noticed it. So it looks like that was the first color and it was used for the default color (probably white) and the rest of the hull might be a bitmap with the default color.

Anyway, thanks a lot!
