Custom Boat Graphics?

Hey Crew,

Just wondering how many of you have custom boat graphics on your pride and joy?  Or if not custom, have graphics of some sort that you bought aftermarket?  Just wondering what sort of money you have spent on doing so and if you haven't and plan to, how much would you spend?  I'm thinking I will get some done once I upgrade from the dinghey dingy. (no offence BJ Laughing)

Cheers,

Adam

mine cost me a carton Adam

Tue, 2009-11-03 20:06

mine cost me a carton Adam and they were good quality however i strongly urge anyone getting stickers to leave it up to the pro's to put them on.......bubbles in the stickers are a pain in the butt!

not much

Tue, 2009-11-03 20:30

Not much, when I eventually do it will be something just like Brad's.  Still a long way off mind you, the dinghy will have another strong billfish season I'm sure.  Just sucks arse this time of year, doesn't get the saltwater love it needs. :(

hey Adam , you could get it

Tue, 2009-11-03 22:38

hey Adam , you could get it done real cheap , in fact for nothing. just get one of the talented local taggers to apply a bit of paint with a can, seen some amazing stuff done that way. anyway it wouldnt be the same without the mother ship you would be lost and how would you go out and single handed manage a bigger boat and a billie on your line at the same timeLaughing

Universal Signs Joondalup did the Puss

Wed, 2009-11-04 06:27

G'day Adam, got mine done up at Universal Signs in Joondalup through a chap named Gunther, I roughly did up the artwork at home before taking it up to him cause I had an idea of what i wanted and he tweaked it and made it smick. All up for the port, starboard and stern stickers our bill was about $300, but well worth it. We also get our forum boat stickers ( i can PM you theseif you like )  done up there as well there a tad more expensive than off the net but customer service goes along way in my book and i know he wont have a problem posting them up to you.

hope this helps .....

Mick

Anyone planning on getting any done in the future?  Just trying to suss out if it would be worth while for an advertiser to get on board.

Yes we are looking to get some name decals at some stage.  Since Bluebone's repaint we are nameless which is a bit strange for us.  Still we know what the old girl's name is.Smile

Lazy

Wed, 2009-11-04 22:12

Yeah I could be keen, been to lazy to get around to it. Mind you it is nice blasting around incognito after you've been talking on the radio about catches etc. Helps keep the pingers away.

There was a stall at the Perth boat show this year.  www.boatnames.com.au .  Around $300 I think got you port and starboard stickers.  Haven't done it yet but will.

Thinking of getting some

Thu, 2009-11-05 18:48

Thinking of getting some done, the neighbor has a massive printing machine that he does work from home on the side. The last cat was called "Syncat" so I'm thinking "Syncat ll"
