I still remember the first rip in the vinyl like yesterday.I wont let others use their fenders next to my boat because it could rip the vinyl. That means keeping cloth covered fenders on both sides of the boat in case a friend ties up next to you when away from the boat. Also the longer the vinyl is on the harder it is to get off. Like I said im broke so went vinyl hope this helps.
Thanks for the input.. I was actually just reading about that!! "Ppl putting fleece on bumpers" and my first thought was what about the other guys.. we always tie up together.

I will actually just be covering up the existing graphics partly b/c of that and not full wrap! Thanks

Why not just have the graphics that are on there shot with the colors you want. It probably wouldn't be as expensive as you would think just doing a cover up.

Turning the green stipe that is the length of the boat white, yes that would look crappy, but changing the color is no big deal. Any decent paint shop can mask, prime, and paint you existing graphics whatever color you want. Used to do it all the time at the boat shop I worked at through college.

I am going to mess around with the vinyl I have samples of this weekend and go from there..
will update and possibly take some pics. Had another color scheme thought, but need to match the green in vinyl, my teal sample is a little light.

Hello from the south shore. I'm in the same situation. My 95 boss still has the colors that were In style In the 90's. I've been looking to get rid of pink on the sides. Jus had the interior done and we changed the pink to purple , I'm looking to do the same on the sides.

well, the iphone 5 worked a lil better.. I pulled the lines up past the rub rail. I have the silver and black (or maybe carbon fiber), but trying to match the teal. Just found another distributor last night that I am trying to get a sample from.
