Subject: Vinyl decals for SN Stern Lettering
Date Posted: May-10-2004 at 2:55pm
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

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?

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?

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,

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.

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?

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,

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.

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.

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.

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!?!?

Don,

I just repainted my side grahics and masked off the stripe and made it solid. I'm going back with 1/8" pin stripe to create the outline like it was orignally. Also on the stern my stripes are different I have two other stripes that are inline with the compition ski boat lettering, one on each side. I'll try and get a digital camera and take some pictures tomorrow.

Thanks for the input yellowdog. I will still need those exact dimensions. If the bottom line of text is too tall it won't fit between my existing stripe (which is not quite original) and my ladder brackets.

Keith I got the measurements this week-end and I'm going to try and lay it out on my cad system and generate a jpg. or tiff file so that it is easier to understand. But basicly they are 2" high letters for both lines and the are both 34-1/6" long the top is slanterd which makes it apear longer I didn't have a protractor to measure the slant but it is 20-30 degrees. The vertical spacing is 2-15/16". One thought I had was on mine it's pretty faded and a little wet sanding will problely remove it so if things are off a little it won't matter. Do you have any type of CAD software on your computer? (where is the speel check) autocad, UG, catia?

CORRECT CRAFT 34-1/16" long 2-3/4" gap between words. 1/2" thick lettering.

COMPETITION SKI BOAT 34-1/16" overall length and 3/8" thick lettering

competition 18-15/16"

gap 1-13/16" at top 1-3/4" at bottom N-S

ski 4-1/4" at top 4-3/8" at bottom

gap 1-13/16"   I-B

boat 7-3/8"

the S is a little different and applies to the left side in regards to the gap, the bottom is at the sharp corner and stickes out 1/8" wider than the vertical tangent point on the curve at the top and this does apply for both side of the S but top/bottom are reversed for the right side of the S

Both are 2" high and the slant is about 30 degrees for CORRECT CRAFT but is a guess and I'll have to get my adjustable triangle out this coming week-end to nail it down exactly.

Keith,

It was '79 that gave you the dimensions, but they are very close to the ones I came up with. I will add that the rake on the letters is 60 degrees on the '78.

You will also have to take me off the list, We are going to re-do the gelcoat this fall to get rid of the spider cracks so the lettering would have to be applied again. Secondly, the woman that lets me live with her is thinking about having the interior re-done (again) so I don't have a clue what accent color she will end up with. Maybe you could let us know who you end up dealing with so we can contact them this winter.

Thanks,

Don

Keith, I just took some measurements on my transom. The distance between the top of my (redone) stripe and the ladder bracket is exactly 2". So, I guess I can't participate in the order.

Unless - Maybe your shop could make one for me that is scaled down. I need teal (I can get the exact color chip name if necessary).

Jameski, another option you have is unbolt the ladder hardware apply the decal and re-attach the hardware over the top of the decal. You'll cover up a small section of one or two letters but I would think it would look fine, just a thought.

I think if Kieth's graphics guy gets the CAD layout done, he can probably reproduce it at any size. If so, I might have him cut one for me that is ~15% smaller than the original. I think that would look fine.

Kieth, if it helps us get a volume discount, count me in and I can work out the details of mine with the graphics shop.

I'm still working on price with two different shops. Thanks to 79nautique's detailed measurments, there will be no problem repoducing an exact decal.

A shop local to me will do it for $35 per decal (plus shipping) for four decals, if we use colors he has is stock. If we go with this option I will need color samples before we order to make sure his in-stock colors will work.

Ron's shop is smaller and they aren't as quick to respond to voice-mail or e-mail. They quoted me $43 per decal (plus shipping) and mentioned no restriction on color.

I'll go with Ron's shop if I can confirm custom colors are okay and will try to get a 4 decal price discount. Whomever we use, I will ask about a 15% reduced graphic for jameski.

I'll probably order this sometime next week. It may be just as easy for you guys to mail your checks and color samples directly to the shop - I will let you know.

Well, Ron's place is non-responsive so I'm going with a shop local to me.

They can do the stern "Correct Craft Competition Ski Boat" decal for $45 each plus shipping if we use in-stock colors and order them all together. If you need a custom color, it starts at $90.

This will be difficult to do over the Internet but the in-stock colors are:

Arlon - 8 yr. durability Gloss Vinyl
Lemon Yellow - 105
Bright Orange - 83
Peacock Red - 223
Red - 01
Medium Blue Metallic - 37
Blue - 05
Gold Metallic - 04
Kelly Green - 61
Dove Gray - 28
Graphite -80
Medium Gray - 50
Sliver Metallic - 07
Smoke Metallic - 21

Arlon - 5 yr. durability Gloss
Teal -171

Avery - 7 yr. durability Reflective
Black Reflective - A7805-R
White Reflective - A7801-R
Red Reflective - A7818-R

Avery 7 yr. durability Metallic
Pewter - A7704-M
Charcoal - A7705-M
Gunmetal - A7706-M
Medium Charcoal - A7708-M
Dark Charcoal - A7709-M

I will scan the colors and post them, although they won't be accurate as the colors will be subject to my scanner and your monitor.

Keith, YOU DA MAN

I'll take the Blue-05 it looks to be closest to what I have.

Who and where do the checks go to?

Is there a way that the graphics guy could print it in ink or something else beside vinyle first, to varify the layout and letter style incase it needs a little tweeking?

I responded to your private email by saying that I had to back out since the wife wants to have the interior re-done this winter and I have no idea what colors will 'compliment' the new interior.

She drives me nuts, but then again, she puts up with me. . . .

79nautique,
I sent you an e-mail as well ...

The in-stock colors did not match your sample. We did find an exact match however (32 Azure Blue). It will be an extra $45 for the non in-stock color .

I have placed the order, pending your okay. I'll pay the differnece upfront once you confirm this is what you'd like to do and you can send me a check.

I received the first proof this morning and had some minor changes. I will post the second proof as soon as I receive it.

Kenny G,
They did have Black Gloss in-stock so you'll be getting that color.

FYI - I ordered metalic gold (close to interior color) as they did not have chocolate brown (carpet color) in stock.

Hi,

I am new to the site and new to owning a SN. In fact, I have not received the 86 2001 that I just bought. Anyway, The boat is in need of some work, and in anticipation of receiving the boat, I have been looking around for stuff I might need for it. I'm pretty sure it will need new decals. Would it be possible for me to jump in on this deal? Let me know.

Thanks,
Keith

    COMPETITION SKI BOAT

Keith,
As Kenny G explained, if you are in need of ther stern lettering that reads, "CORRECT CRAFT {new line} COMPETITION SKI BOAT" - sure. The cost is $55 if you select from the 'in-stock' colors. Custom colors go up to $110. You will find the in-stock colors earlier in this posted discussion (page 2 I believe). If you'd like to order the stern lettering, send me an e-mail with your selected color and I'll send you the mailing address for the check.

If you're looking for the lettering on the side that reads, "SKI NAUTIQUE" that's a different story. My graphics guy has done it before and may still have the file. I have no idea what the cost would be. I can look into it if you like, let me know.

Thanks,
Keith

Thanks for the info, I will let you know once I receive shipment of the boat. Will it still be only $55 if I order it later, or will I have to pay a setup fee?

Thanks,
Keith

Here's the final proof - exact to 79nautique's measurments. It looks great to me but since my boat does not already have this lettering ... 79nautique (and/or anyone else), can you proof it for me?

Thanks,
Keith

Whats needs to change is the top line it should extend past the lower line a little on each end. If you split it in the middle at that point the upper and lowwer lines are equal width. I'll try and import your image into my CAD system and give you a picture of what I mean but it's damn near perfect as it is.

Chris,
I posted the proof file I have (it's not 100%). Are you able to blow it up to the correct size? If not, I can work something out either from the signshop or I can do it.

BTW - send me your e-mail (can't attach files through the Forum's mail function).

Thanks,
Keith

I can try and blow it up. If the sign shop can send a full size cgm file I can print exactly what they have and send back a modified file to correct any thing that needs corrected. I'll have to e-amil you the jpeg that explains what needs to be done to the top line.

79nautique & Kenny G,
I dropped your completed decals in the mail today. You should have them by this Thurs. or Fri.

They look great! The decal is rolled in a tyvek envelope and shipped in a carboard tube. Installation instructions are included.

Please let me know when you get them.

Thanks,
Keith

kenny g

Have you or keith put on your vinyl yet? I was wondering if you two are going over existing lettering or have a blank stern? If you are going over existing lettering how will does it match up? I usually leave my boat in the lake all season but if it match's right up and I don't have to sand off the old painted lettering I could get it done in a day and only spend a couple of hours doing it but if I have to sand the old stuff off I was going to wait a little longer.

Keith the color is a perfect match and it looks realy good just don't want to get in the lake to compare it and take a chance of getting it wet before I apply it and messing it up. I have to plan a head for a truck to pull the trailer, ya I know, why have a boat and have nothing to tow it.

79nautique,
No, I haven't applied mine yet - waiting for 24-hours of not using it and no rain. My boat is out of the water most of the time so it will be much easier for me. I trailer it to a nearby lake 1-2 nights per week.

I already have sanded off my stern strip (no pre-existing lettering on my Mustang) so I'm working with a blank stern. My guess it you'd be better off doing it that way. The letter should be very, very close but it probably will not match perfectly to your old lettering.

Glad to hear the the color matches so well.

-Keith
