Hi All,

I have a relatively easy question. Can any of you recommend a quality company that makes "boat name lettering"? Also, where on your WWP-19 have you placed its name? It would seem the back transom is out because of the motor, mount, rudder and ladder. Either or both side rear quarters? Have any of you encountered any problems with lettering, i.e. .. material, gel coats etc .. ? Can you suggest what you would consider a fair/average price?

Thank you!!

[

"I recommend Marine
Graphics® without
hesitation. Their "Virtual
Relettering" is not only a
great way to get the right
typographical touch for
your boat, but also to
find out how the Internet
can be used to improve
customer service -- when
a business really cares
to do so -- and this one
really does! "
