I am going to have to say NO to the "Mr. Fister" lol

I do like "Nauti Girl" but not as much as Dirty Girl.

How do I post a picture of the boat here? I also will post a logo that I made up for the "Dirty Girl" name. I was thinking about just putting "The DG" on the back of the boat with this logo.

Any other good names?

If It was a cabin Cruiser I would name it "Yo-Ho" like a pirate boat.........

Wow, I feel like a tool, I knew how to do that. I just never saw the attachment icon down there!

Here is a pic of my boat and the logo that I made up. I was going to name it "The DG" for the Dirty Girl. I prob will still use this name. The logo is cool, I think. I was going to put "The DG" on the left side of the Stern and the Girl Shadow on the right side of the Stern.

Any cool ideas of what I could do to spice up the stripes with this thing? My dilema is that I paid this vinyl shop to do stripes and lettering on the boat and now that I am not going to do the lettering down the side of the hall I have to do something because they claim because they are a franchise they can not just give me my money back.

I should have never paid up front, Now I am stuck trying to use up a grand of vinyl.

21,
Sweet Looking 10 Mtr, nice lines. Hate to burst your bubble but I would'nt put the DG vinyl on the boat. You have a classic and I think it would de-tract from the 'look' . Dont mind me asking, is your windshield painted or is that vinyl also ? Been thinking of putting vinyl on my windshield to make my exterior all white.

Thanks for the compliment on the boat. I love it, the bow used to have a stripe on it and but it was gone when I got the boat. The whole bow is white and I feel like it just needs something up there. The red stripes are a little beat up but I do like how the boat looks.

This is my initial thought of what I think I want to do.
-The rub rail insert was white rubber so I ordered a black rubber insert. The white one was beat up bad.
-because the red stripes are beat up pretty bad I was going to have them touched up with some paint to look good again.
-I was going to have them take black pinstripe and cover the white pin stripes in between the red stipes on the side of the boat to better tie in with the black rub rail.
-A small "The DG" lettering on the stern of the boat with the logo shadow small on the right side of the stern. My exhaust comes out above the rub rail so the lettering "The DG" will be inbetween the far left and the center exhaust, and the shadow will be inbetween the far right and the center exhaust.
-I want to do some kind of stripe on the bow to tie it all in as well.

What do ya think?




-Also, the winshield is like a white lexan. The windsheild, hatch, cabin doors, vents, everything is this white plexiglass or lexan. I really like how it looks.

Nice looking boat! Gotta love the hardcore Fountain lines. Timeless!!!


You just put "Happy Camper" on the deck and you will for sure draw a crowd at the dock.

No, See.......I like how your boat looks. I just think that for the style boat I have with the lines it will look better with a clean side versus having the name across it. Yours looks good but it is more open. Once I put a name on my boat on the side I think it would just look too cluttered.

21,
The black insert in the rub-rail would be a good idea, hides dings better than the white. Touching up the red pin stripe also a good idea, make sure its a match ! I would stay away from the black pin stripe between the red, keep it simple... your trying to hard. As far as the stern goes, tape the vinyl to the boat, Dont stick it yet, just see what it looks like first before you commit ! Here is mine, classic white

My .02 stay with the white rubrail, its harder to keep clean but makes the boat look long ..the black will look like its cut in half, acectone will keep the white, white. I have had 2 boats w/blk and change the rails to white as soon as I got them.
BTW beautiful boat!
