Yep, you absolutely can. Its only your boat.

My rudimentary rendering was literally 30 seconds in Powerpoint, but what I was getting at was something of an oval logo rather than print in the paint. I like the oval logo, and the way its wrapped into Rich's paint job was the idea I was going for.

BUT, no need to copy another design.

Every opportunity I get my friend - thanks for the compliment. Actually, I am overwhelmed with excitement..I have it up in about 4 places on here

In all honesty, it does make a big difference and as Mark says I am sure the real life view will far exceed the pics, let alone the rendering.

Like I said earlier, no matter what route you take, you will have a head turner!

I do like the green, but it reminds me of the boat in Clark's avatar.

HAHAHAH!!! There is only one of those!!! At least that is what I am told...

The Green is the fan favorite....I think it adds color to the boat... It would really look good with a white and blue accented interior…

Just my .02 cents which thats all I have left right now.lol Green should only come in 2 forms $ and sumthing you use a lawn mower to cut.The green against blue I don't like.I think the green catches your eye more than the blue and orange so IMO it takes away the main colors.Mack don't drive yourself crazy on this even though its hard not too.Hope to see paint on yours and mine soon and my settee cushion and table too.Thanks Pat.

I know Rich....I'm so undecided.

Pat insists the purple will look great against the blue. It will be a pearlescent mettalic. The green will be just a flat ole lime green.

So, if Pat gets his way it will be Scheme 1. Maybe increase the size of the green stripes in that scheme.

Still need to decide how we want to do logos.

If you need 2 logos from the side of my boat I think Pat is taking them off this week so you can have mine but do you need the clearcoat with them cause if you do I can't help you

How about this thought.
Go w/ #1 but:
1- add more green
2- Light the purple up a shade or 2
3- Add some red highlites (or deep orange)
4- Do you dash kinda like the pic.
5- Add some details / highlights to that solid blue on deck
Look closely at the drawing - I added some details, changed the dash a bit, and lightend up some purple.
The portside on is plain (compared to stbd) and . . . .well, not attractive (MY opinion - and you know what they say about those) Portside needs something more to balance it w/ stbd.



AT guys - I know Macklin will appreciate some input here. So far the dash is all cobalt blue. We have lots of no wake zones. SO - do you think the blue dash combined with blue deck will be hot- esp on a typical 100% humidity 90 degree + day?
I think the blue dash will look wonderful-but be VERY hot. Plus your beverage of choice will be subject to getting warm - warm beer - yuk.
