OK - Done, plain and simple.

Thanks. I didnt expect this many people to vote!!

5 is the best but it sucks when the wife is right and you have to tell her

3 looks more in motion but 5 looks the best (IMHO)

5, looks cleaner

Here's my .02.

Lose the 'Inc' - the only people who care about that are your creditors- just adds visual clutter.

Italicizing the name gives it a feeling of motion.

Find another typeface for your secondary copy- cataneo swash is an inappropriate choice. (my opinion anyway- doesn't mix at all with the Kabel Bold)

One reason your motion marks didn't work is they are incongruent with the rest of the image. Instead of straight, blocky rectangles try using smooth swashes that harmonize with the type of line you are using with the boat graphic. (I would show ya, but I've used up my two cents worth...)

You have a winner!!!

#5

5 is the only way to go. Awsome logo

i like 5 best also. the one jay boat did looks good. nice and smooth, i think it gives it a feeling of speed also.

Definitely 5. Definitely.
