Great news!! I found a company that will duplicate PQ Crazy's graphics (it would be vinyl graphics) for about $1300 plus a few extras (like the bow).
Goodbye pink and teal!

Here's the mock up. I just placed my order and should have my new graphics in about 2 weeks. Not bad for less than $1400!!

Definitely an improvement. My main concern with vinyl graphics is how glossy is it going to look and how long will it last. Generally you get what you pay for.

So what are you going to do about the interior?

My vinyl graphics have a 7 year warranty against fading or cracking and are marine grade meaning they technically can sit in saltwater and arent supposed to be affected whatsoever (not sure if I believe that but its supposed to be the best quality out there).
Interior colors will stay the same for this summer but will be changed next spring. Not willing to pay to have it all done in 1 year.

PS--Ive just changed the colors slightly to decrease the yellow and increase the red and orange. Hopefully this will give me an even sportier look.

I must say that grafic design looks very good on the 26. I went through the same thing a few years ago on my last PQ. Matter of fact based on your posting it looks like I was looking at the same company for vinyl lay-overs.

You cant beat their prices! Ive called around and everyone wants $2800 for this job (double what I paid). Right now they have some specials going which is helping the pricing.
Even to have my existing graphics painted I was quoted $2500.
Its almost going to be like buying a new boat!
Im really excited for the opening day of boating season to get here!

Are you doing the install?? I've put some fairly large vinyl on but never anything like that.

Powerquest_Baby!! · 03-06-2009, 01:48 PM

No, Ive called around and for $100 an hour can have a professional do it. Since I know there will be some trimming involved and a clear laminate that needs to be put on I would rather spend the money and get it done right.
Probably will have everything done by 4/1 and will post some pics.
Cheapest "new boat" Ive ever bought!!

Good move those are some pretty expensive stickers to mess up. There's a real art to installing those big boys. Can't wait to see the final product, the mock up looks very nice!!

I like your graphics plan. The mock up looks good. Congrats on the new boat. You will be jammin in style for sure.
