Re: Help pick the graphics for the new name
You have other options. 
Please forgive my rant, but other than #1, those others are bullsh*t, and point out exactly what is wrong with the sign business these days. Too many untrained amateurs-- and the customer is the loser in the deal. I realize that art is a subjective thing and everyone has different taste, but how are you to know if the 'professional' you've hired doesn't have the brains or the experience to give you some decent options?
It's a sign of the times, and I generally stopped letting it bother me very much years ago because of the sheer volume of inappropriate, fugly lettering everywhere you turn nowadays... the result is the general public has grown accustomed to it and accepts it as the norm. aaaaargh. The area of boat lettering is a real sore spot for me because I like boats so much... oh well.
It was number five that set me off... any bozo that suggest using that font on a boat like yours should be stabbed repeatedly with an xacto that's been dipped in burnt drive lube.
Thanks for listening, now back to the poll...

The Cigarette is going up for sale with Pete at Custom Marine sales. Really nice boat. Not sure what he'll do with the Ocean Express.

Re: Help pick the graphics for the new name
IMO the bold print/script the bolder it is the harder it is to read from a far.
I like the thinner script.
Also your putting it across 3 colors. Its going to have to stand out to beable to read it in the water
Dennis the name fits
