Name on back of boat....
 

Just looking at picts on here, I notice most with 382's put the name across the several steps in the back by the swim platform. Just curious who you have make the decals and if you apply them yourselves? Thanks

Most any graphics shop can make them. It's a little tricky over the ridges.Spray a mix of dish detergent and water so you can move everything around. Not a big deal but if you are not comfortable just pay the graphics guy a little extra and let him do it.:drink:

Thanks, will have to look into a good graphics shop, didnt know if they had to make them custom for the steps or what. I have applied plenty of decals on our Sea-Doo's so that part shouldnt be a problem. Anyone feel free to post pictures of your names

Here's one of my favorites:cool:

that is perfect location, most Ive seen are on the left side.... Im going to send you a PM

Here's mine "Family Tradition" The reason for the name is becasue for me it is a family sport. My parents got me into this crazy sport and I love them for it!

Talk to Jay boat here on OSO he did mine. It turned out great and would recomend him for any graphics!

Sent you one back....

If your boat is Coast Guard Documented, your boat name and hailing port must have lettering at least 4 inches high.

WHAT ARE THE VESSEL NAME AND HAILING PORT MARKING REQUIREMENTS?
Documented vessels do not display their official numbers on the outside of the hull, but are identified by the name and hailing port. The application for documentation must include a name for the vessel composed of letters of the Latin alphabet or Arabic or Roman numerals and may not exceed 33 characters. The name may not be identical, actually or phonetically, to any word or words used to solicit assistance at sea; may not contain or be phonetically identical to obscene, indecent, or profane language, or to racial or ethnic epithets. Once established, a vessel's name may not be changed without application, fees, and the consent of the Director, National Vessel Documentation Center. There is no rule against duplication of names for documented vessels, so hailing ports are helpful in identifying vessels.

Mine meet all requirements...Good point. (Hailing port doesn't have to be on water anymore)QUOTE=kjm5125;2071813]If your boat is Coast Guard Documented, your boat name and hailing port must have lettering at least 4 inches high.

I like the city underneath even better...... Going to have to get ahold of him. how tall is the name as well as the city/ state?

Does the city/state have to be 4 inches high as well?

thanks for the responses

No the height of the city/state does not have to be 4 inches high. Mine are 4" high on the name and 2" high on the city/state.

The overall height is 6" and the length is 38". Call Jay and he will take care of you.

I believe your boat name and hailing port need to be in four inch letters. Not sure on how well they enforce this requirement. I go past a Coast Guard station everytime I take the boat out and they usually look.


HOW DO I MARK MY VESSEL?

The name and hailing port of a recreational vessel must be marked together on some clearly visible exterior part of the hull. The vessel name of a commercial vessel must also be marked on the port and starboard bow and the vessel name and the hailing port must also be marked on the stern. All markings may be made by any means and materials that result in durable markings and must be at least four inches in height, made in clearly legible letters of the Latin alphabet or Arabic or Roman numerals. The "hailing port" must include both a place and a State, Territory, or possession of in the United States. The state may be abbreviated

Hey,Premier,got info on your hatch mirrors. Kind of expensive,you should be able to get them done locally for a couple hundred $,but I will order from Formula if you like,email me,Robert

How much? I also looked into the mat place you gave me for the carpet but I think we would rather just get it directly from Formula (you) I need to make a list of everything we want then I will get back with you.

thanks!

this is what we came up with, what do you guys think?

Edit: I have another angle, but its on a 7mp camera and way too big. how do I make it smaller so I can attach it?

Looks nice:drink:

thanks man! did you ever get a price on that last piece I asked about? The metal piece that goes over the K&N filters on the 600hp 382? Thanks again
