    Doug,
    I don't know of any specific ones, but look in the yellow pages
    under "Signs". There are several listed in my book.
    
    Another possibility is BOAT/US. They have an order form where you
    can select from several different lettering styles, sizes, and
    colors. They will custom make your lettering with stick-on material
    that you apply yourself. One advantage to this stuff is that you
    can save a copy of the order form and if the lettering should ever
    get damaged you can order an exact replacement.
    
    Call: BOAT/US

    Go see Norman Lowe on route 38 in Dracut.Ma. He does good work at
    a fair price. I've had him do some boat painting for me in the past
    
    Anoter alternitine is the stick on Vynal letters. I applied them
    to "Rainbow Chaser" and they look very good and are not hard to
    put on. a benifit is they peal off when you want them to., Come
    time to paint the hull or if a letter gets damaged? Rather than
    paint that peals and will require a pro to repaint.
    
    There are many graphic supplie houses in the boston area . I called
    one in Sommerville, Ma.   
    
    Price ? " RAINBOW CHASER" 8" letters " NEWBURYPORT,MA." 4" letters
    
                           $65. american clams

re .0:

If I were a Coast Guard officer deciding which boats to randomly board 
to search for drugs, I'd certainly choose to board a boat named 'BAD TO 
THE BONE'. I've always wondered why people give their boat a name that 
simply begs for harrassment by the police and Coast Guard.

    Another name that gives me that warm comfortable feeling is
    "raising hell", I can't remeber others but have seen some
    great ones usually on those "cigarete" type boats as they
    plow by you leaving you rolling in their wake. I really
    find it offensive to get behind these type of boats that
    exhaust above the water (read: sound like a car with no muffler)
    and have to listen to that while going through a no wake area.

    Perhaps he has no drugs and enjoys see the Coast Guard waste
    their time.  I know in the current climate I do.

    Better check those expiration dates on your flares before you
    end up with your boat seized.

    re: .4,.6;
    I didn't ask his reasoning for naming his boat this, although he's
    no saint. (you can choose your friends but not you're relatives,
    right?) But anyway, this boat looks pretty unsuspicious compared
    to many out there, and he drives it very responsibly.
    For what it's worth, my previous boat was named "REBEL REBEL".
    That wasn't me, that was the boat, because it was so darn tempermental.

    	When I got my last boat I had dreamed about having a nice little
    bay boat. Then I finally got one. It was a 15' center console made
    in Florida called a Seaquirt. Just about everytime I went out in
    this boat I got wet from chop/spray hence the name.........

    	One day when I didn't make it back to my girlfriends house in
    time with her two younger brothers (due to a very large school of 
    snapper blues that wouldn't leave us alone), she got worried and
    called the coast guard. They asked the usual questions, i.e. size, 
    color, make, and name. After passing this info to the CG, the man 
    taking the info asked if this was a crank call :-)
