Default A little winter updating...
While I keep losing at being able to pull the fuel tank out of my Scarab Panther. I decided to update my cleats on my Active Thunder. I replaced the original ones with these 8" pull-up cleats when I overhauled and painted the boat 3 summers ago. I had never put the name back on the boat because I couldn't think how to integrate it into the paint. As I was playing around with my laser I had an idea.
What do you think?

Looks like a classy custom idea.

Great font. Subtle but visible.

Nice work.
