It's winter time for lots of us, so CCFan seems to be put on the back burner until about Feb or March. I know I hate this time of year the site is a little slow on new topics.

If I get a week end off work I just may have to take you and Eddie up on your offer. Speaking of Eddie we have not heard from him in awhile.

Right you are again...he isn't on much. BUt he is doing just fine. Like I said...we footed Friday and then took our wives out to dinner and a movie and finished the evening at his house drinking bourbon and coke and watching old show ski vids from their days with Badgerland. Awesome evening!

Thanks Tim for the support.

Sorry guys . the title for the topic did not intrest me untill today .

My boot stripe is 100% original . It is not paint . It is vinyl tape that you can get at west marine . They have 2 different thicknesses.

I bought the boat from an old man that was pushing 70 back in 94 .He was the original owner . He was way past the point of caring about the boat . It sat on the shore for atleast 2 years that I can remember .This guy was not very ambitious at all . So I dont think he would have put it on . As a matter of fact I think he did more fishing than boating.

If any one is going to need correct emblems for this era of boat I would not buy the new ones they are terribly different . I will take pics and post . The best thing to do is to watch Ebay then, good luck . The reason that my boat doesnt have any on is because they were broken and it looked better without .
I did have some before GL. but didnt put them on , for fear of the being broken . I looked for nearly 10 years before I was able to find some that I could buy .

Sorry Tim I cant support you on this one .

I cant get a very good picture of the chrome one , which is new and I refuse to use . The first pic is of the chrome , good-ebay and broken original . You dont see as many with the white letters .


I tried to put them on top of each other so you could see the difference . Notice that every letter is different and the mounting holes, none are the same .







Hopefully this will give you an idea how different they are . A dead give away is the bottom of the (f) . Check white Lake Marine you will see .

Pat, I was talking about the earlier metal emblems that were used through '71. I didnt realize they made the switch for '72.

Good info on the differences between the white/black and chrome/black plastic emblems. I think we all assumed they only varied in color.

I may have to take some dimensions off your waterline stripe next year!

well I got hamerd on this years ago, but when I first bought my 79SN it did have the script metal ones on it, might have been replacements, might not, don't know. But I do know that the holes did not line up when I got the chrome/black replacements compared to what was there and they match closer to what Pat posted as org for his.

Now for those of you that keep putting off installing those new plastic emblems for fear of breaking them. This is what I did and they never broke for 5 years even taking a dock hit that scratched the one pretty good. But go to the hardware store get a tube of clear sealant in the caulking area. Apply a thin layer over the complete back surface before you mount them and wipe off the excess around the edges and your done and they will not break. Most of the time it's the water riping them off when you slow down or take off, so if they are glued to the side of the boat and sealed so water can't get behind them to ripe them off.

Adam, I still feel that the black plastic painted white and the top sanded off to make the lettering black would be appropriate. Plus, they are available.
