custom decals

[FSHKPR]

Recently finished a pontoon rebuild. and now need to restripe it, and would also like to add a little logo to each side. does anybody know where to have a custom decal made? and is it real expensive. would i be better off hiring a local high school artist to paint it on for me? its not a real complex design, but there is know way i am gonna be able to draw and paint it on. <br />

<br />the only change i want to make is have the Happy arching up and the ours arching down so the whole logo forms a circle. thanks for any ideas!

Re: custom decals

FSHKPR,<br /><br />Go to ebay and use the search word "decal". Many of the outfits selling there will do custom work, very reasonably.<br /><br />I like the name and design. However, I think I would lose the martini glasses. You're inviting a "visit" from the water law.

Re: custom decals

thanks for the responses. what does everyone think about the martini glasses? i kinda thought it made the logo but if i am inviting trouble, probably best if i left them off.

Re: custom decals

FSHKPR, IMHO you're inviting trouble. If you saw somebody with M galsses as part of their logo what would you think? Now what if you were the local cops or Coast Guard? See what I mean? Who needs the added scrutiny?<br /><br />I have a Formula with Twin 350s and thru-hull exhaust. You can hear it for miles and the boat is bright yellow. I attract a lot of attention. The CG has never boarded me despite always heading for me. Know why? Because when the spy me with the Bincs they don't see any alcohol.<br /><br />Again, just my opinion.

Re: custom decals

I make custom decals for older merc motors, and what I do is create them very precisely in adobe workshop, then I save it to a disk, and take it down to the nearest sign shop and have them print them for me on their photo printer on marine grade vinyl. It costs me 25bux to have a set made for and Inline 6 Merc.
