    I haven't made any tangible ones yet that's all work I have done in adobe Photoshop. Trying to get an idea how they would look on the boat.
    I got my boat today. Looks really nice!



    I'm going to goto a local graphics shop this week about having these made up for me. Then I can actually put one on the boat in real life and see what it will be like. Also to find out what they will cost.
    Anyone that wants one is welcome to them. I will just charge what they cost me to have made up plus shipping. I wont be making anything (profit) off them.

    I'll keep it updated. Here

              Went to the graphics shop today with my works & my boat.
              I put in an order for 4 of the babe with the flags decals I made. I should see them by the middle of next week.

              But for now I used photoshop to show what it should look like with the ones Im having made up.

                          So the local place I went to a few weeks ago wont call me back or answer the phone. SO I guess thats a no go with them.

                          I removed my gecko a week or so. It stained the deck.

                          I tried rubbing a little acetone on it but it didnt do much. I have buffed it with light rubbing compound and it helped a little. Then I noticed when it was outside for a little bit it seemed to fade. So I buffed it again then used a oil filled heater with the boat flipped upside down on a table above the heater so the heat would rise and hit the deck. It faded a little more. Still not gone 100% but looks better.

                          BEFORE


                          AFTER


                          I have a couple of my deck decals being made from another place but not local. Hope to get them this week. But I didnt get enough to sell to anyone else yet. I'm going to see if the next town over has a reliable shop to make them for me on request for anyone else.
