Re-produced Correct Craft Decals

Paul,

I just received the trailer decals and the warning decal today. They look great. I already installed the warning decals on the fenders.



Thanks,
Randy

Paul email sent about decals.

Pauly,

Thanks for geting back with me, the check is in the mail today.

Dave,

No one really asked me yet...what your recomendation on which days to go? I finally got my trailer rerady for road. I guesss I should move this over to the St. John's thread.   

   Randy,


   You coming to St.John ?

Thanks Randy, that works perfectly. Glad to here that the boat is working out! Please update with pictures of your restoration. That would be very interesting for both Scott and I. The yellow 1989 always caught alot of attention from people. Most people would think that the boat was only a few years old.

We are looking at trying to do the mid 1980's black Ski Nautique trailer decal and the late 1980's black Ski Nautique with the globe. We have a very good image of the black with the globe from skierbrant who owns a 1989, but nothing for the split diagonal from about 1985-1988. Please let us know if there is an interest in getting this done, or are some of these decals still out there?

Thanks-Pauly-Banana

Pauly, I totally understand your reasoning on the compromises- I think thats very reasonable. You did a heck of a job and even kept the price much lower than I expected... job well done! I think these should sell very well for you. I know that Ill take several sets- Ill shoot you an email.

We decided to produce these knowing that we could only really get close on the 1970's decal. In an effort to help keep our cost down, we decided to produce what we pictured! The script had to be hand drawn. We used the 1980's bottom font in the 1970's decal to also help keep cost resonable. We had a huge advantage on the 1980's decal. Bruce at N3 marine sent two chrome 1980's decals that could be used to help reduce design cost and provide something for us to work with! The reality was that we were never able to get a good image to use or never a complete decal picture without some obstruction within the image. It took time just to get the size since many people offered a variety of measurements. In discussion with our design artist "Dan" the original font in Correct Craft does not exist as a computer text and was of course hand drawn many years ago. The curles within the font on the letters expecially the "C's" were the most challenging. For us it would have been much easier to only produce the 1980's decal, but we did not want to disappoint many of you. Adding more artwork and time into the design would increase the cost of each decal. The chrome decal really looks awsome and I hope that it really adds something special to your boat and trailer.

By the way we slightly increased the size of both decals to help cover years of fading on your trailer! The size of the 1980's is 2 1/8 X 10 5/8 and the 1970's is 2 3/8 X 12 1/4

Bah, that statement probably came from the marketing dept. "Specifically engineered hull form to give maximum speed." Now we're talking!

Not quite, Tim.

"Newest water ski boat - not a drag race boat" - Legal Dept.
