| Bill,
Call BoatGraphics at 313-855-3525 and ask for their brochure.
They use adhesive backed vinyl to make boat names and graphic images.
Names vary in price from $60 to $210 depending on the number of colors
and whether you specify the exact typestyle or they provide a creative
style or do a custom design. They also create graphic images, cartoon
characters, etc.
I just ordered a "Shibumi" for my boat, specifying that they use the same
typeface that Sabre uses for their logo, using blue letters with red shading.
This cost $75 (Specific typeface, two color) which is less than a sign painter
wanted for simple block letters.
It's not an issue for you but they also guarantee that their typefaces will
meet CG standards for documented boats.

| I wanted the lettering on my boat to be unique and that is what I got. It is
quite elegant and I'm very pleased with the results. The designer is
Nancy Culmone of Acton who is a calligrapher and instructor at DeCordova
in Lincoln. Grace Peters of Cambridge, a calligrapher and sign painter, did
the application. It costs a few bucks but it is infinitely more variable
and definitely unique.

| Does anyone have a more recent phone number for BOATGRAPHICS? This
is the one I have from an older sailing note: 313-855-3525. It is
someone's private home now, so I don't know whether the co. is still
in business.
If it isn't, can anyone point me to another, similar company?

| 147.8 | Any sign company can do boat graphics | STEREO::HO | | Fri Mar 06 1992 12:08 | 10 |
| Any sign company can do stick on vinyl graphics for a boat. Just look
in the yellow pages under "SIGNS". Some, like Charrette, have the
ability to scan a photo into their imaging software to produce a vinyl
rendition.
Some will do this while you wait. I had a 20" boatname done for my
boat for $22. Didn't take more than 15 minutes, most of which was
spent deciding on the type font.
