colors given

There are three colors given, but the block shows many shades of blue within the dark blue pieces. Does the design still move if the blocks are a solidly dark blue, white, and light blue?

I have been wanting to make a quilt for a friend of mine who spends a majority of his time at sea. I have looked everywhere for this pattern. I'm sure he will love it!
