Heres a pic with the stickers, you cant see it well but there is the big "SCARAB" across the windscreen in black too.

but since I have your attention and you are familiar with Nova's, if you saw my boat on the water would you automatically know it's a Nova ll even with the different windscreen?

Maybe not, but the Scarab stickers would catch my attention and then I would look real hard knowing instantly it isn't a Scarab, and then maybe figure it out.

Wait till people off the street ask about your Cigarette boat. It will make your skin crawl.

And then you really can't point at the Scarab decals. Hmmm.

Again IMHO. No big deal from this side of the computer. Your boat, not mine. LOL.

How about just Wellcraft decals....that could stir up good convo/questions from people that know boats....as it is a Wellcraft but not a regular OEM one. That is, if you don't want Nova on the side .

Definitely looks like a Nova II with a windscreen. Cool looking boat, have fun with it

You could always slap Nova Marine stickers on it and really flip people out.

Ok so here's what I think I'm going to do... take off the Scarab decals and have this image made in black only (not the oval just the "w"and flags , big on the windscreen and smaller in white where the white scarab emblems are. [ATTACH=CONFIG]565594[/ATTACH]
