Default 24' Banana parts and decals

I have a 1978 24 that i am restoring. I'm looking for an engine hatch and the new style decals. Charlie and Charlie Jr can you help me? The guy that i bought the boat from cut the hatch in two to get the 454 out and lost the front half . I was wondering about the decals since the Banana Boat Co. era has ended. Can anyone help?

Decals are cutom made to go with your color scheme. Let us know what you want...take a look on the website for some different ideas re colors. They run $125 per set.

Hatches can be made also, I'll let my son deal with you on this, as we are in the midst of moving the molds up north and he would know where specific parts molds are now.

Thanks Charlie. I was wondering if there is any history known about hull 17. I was lucky enough to find it in a field in Ohio. Any idea what speeds I might get with a stock 330hp 454 and a bravo 1. I am working on building a new motor but this is what I have for now. Any info on which prop to run. Trial and error can get expensive. Like I said i'm just starting so there will be plenty more questions to come.

I'm not sure about speeds, but I would try a bravo 3 blade 21 or 23. I have tried 4 and none of them are just right, and it CAN get expensive.
