Nice work Scott .... How about just the stripes .... diff. colors though,... and the new style BIGGER Cig oval logo to match ??? My .02 would be ... less is more on the graffics ... especially on the classics ... Let the lines of the hull speak for themselves !!!! Keep us posted ... can't wait to see it in the spring !

I agree w/ LEOPAJM, less is more on the graphics...Looks like you have a good helper too! Good help is hard to find...

Details ?? Looks like a late 80's cafe ? :drink:

How about the old Apache 41 raceboat called StarChaser. Great history and it's for sale for 45K. No motors or drives. Set up for staggered and 6s.

It's in the back if Extreme Boats Mag. I think Powerboat too.

She is a 1989 35' caferacer. But I'm leaning to a newer graphics design.

That looks like Lucky Strike Pink! :)

Re: My Winter Project
 
I thought I was the only one with a pink boat. But I think you might be right. Any thoughts on a good graphics design?

I think his is a lighter pink. I don't think when the painted our boat it was called pink. I'm sure there was a more "technical term."

SKRAMER-Here are some by Grafikworx.

I don't have a good picture of it, but this is the sweetest Cafe I've ever seen. It belongs to a freind of board member Zero Patience.

It would probably be good since that is a 36' Gladiator and you have a 35' Cafe Racer. I've seen the boat, it looks great becuase it has no rubrail. Cool paint.

All White, and use some Vinyl graphics that can easily be refreshed if you want a change again :D

Color wise, go with using Red, because it never seems to be out dated on a boat :cool:
