Keith,

You mention both lines of text, are they also including the solid color line below the text? Any idea what colors are available? We re-did the interior with sort of a teal and burgandy for accents and would like to match one of those.

Anybody do anything with the side graphics besides Rob? Don't think the wife would go for the flames!?!?

jameski,

The ladder will have to come off to install the lettering. The vinyl letters come on one large sheet that is applied intact. This is how they keep everything even. One of the other good things with this process is that you can slide the decal up or down to miss the ladder brackets.

On our '78 Nautique, the ladder brackets are just above the 1st 'T' in competition and the 'I' in ski.

I want a set IF it will fit around my ladder. I guess I need to wait for exact dimensions before I give the nod.

Using rough guests for measurements, I have quotes from two different places - on at $43 and another at $53 per set of graphics (both lines of text). I'd like to see about a discount for ordering several.

Please let me know if you definitely want these and indicate your color choice. As soon as I get the actual measurements from 79Nautique I can place the order for all of us.

Keith,
I got your e-mail and mine looks exactly like the picture you posted. I'll measure mine and see if I can get some tracing paper and do a overlay as well.

Can someone who has this similar lettering on the stern of their boat send detailed dimensions? I need overall length of each line of text, tallest letter height from 'CORRECT CRAFT' and from 'Competition Ski Boat'.

Thank you,
Keith

We could use Rob's guy (Rob can you send contact info?) but we will still need a closeup photo of the stern lettering (with dimentions). I found a decent photo of what I would like. It seems close, but I'm not sure it the exact font. Can anyone else help?

I have a friend coming over with his digital camera tomorrow, and if everything goes okay I will probably do my diary on Mon. The sign company that I deal with has a large selection of colors and could probably do whatever you need.

Rob,

Maybe it's my computer, but I cannot open the picture.

Please keep us informed as to your progress with this. Does your source have the ability to many colors or would it be limited to a few basics? Very interested in seeing the results!

Thanks,

Don

I would be willing to kick in for the setup as well. Rob, do you think your shop could do it with only a $35 setup fee?

Does someone have a good detailed master graphic to work from or know the actual fonts and size lettering?

Keith,

I have been working on this with a girl in Florida. Problem with this and other "one-off" things is the setup costs. While she hasn't gotten back with a hard number yet, the setup alone could be a couple of hundred bucks. Not worth it to me for 1. Maybe we could get several orders together to defray the costs?

Anyone know where I can get good vinyl decals that mimic the stern of the late '70s, early '80s Ski Nautiques?

Just the lettering that reads:
Correct Craft
Competition Ski Boat


Thanks,
Keith
