Boat lettering

jrc · 03-22-2006, 11:39 AM

I'm picking up a new boat this spring and I'd like to put a name on the stern. All over the internet there are companies selling vinyl lettering. But for all the fancy stuff they cost nearly $200 for a basic name. Plus there's the stress of not screwing up the install.

Does anyone have experience having a name painted? Any wild guesses on what it would cost? I'm talking about a simple name on the transom, not a big fancy paint job down the side of the boat.
