In Response To: Have we discussed vinyl lettering here? ()
Gene,
Put our hailing port on in 1995 (it might have been 96???) using vinyl lettering. Been on ever since, including some very VERY brutal years in the sun of the Sea of Cortez. They are now looking a bit faded, but still strong. The only thing that makes me want to change them is that the edges are scrapped a bit in places where I goofed on cleaning the hull.

- My boat name and hail are done in vinyl...
- 11 years so far and looking good
- I replaced mine the second time I painted the hull.
- In a time of boats often changing hands, seems a waste to paint a name on. Vinyl works for me.
- We hired a local company to do the vinyl
- "Sticker On!" and "Sticker Off!"
