Thoughts: Newer style decal on older style hull
« on: March 06, 2013, 07:39:23 AM »
How do you think those large Aquasport hull graphics would look on my navy blue 19'6? I wanted to put a logo on and I love the original AS marlin hull graphic. Any input would be great!

Classic,
That graphic is mainly a medium blue with some teals and lighter blues...wouldn't show on your navy hull.  The goldish TM graphics would work best on navy...

Hmm okay, I would really like to get my hands on a pair of those. I don't see too many older 19'6s with graphics?

Not the best pic of the TM graphics, but you can get the idea.  This is Pete's 225 Osprey with the TM package, the same gold graphics were also used on navy and forest green hulls...



This is how the standard bluish/greenish/teal graphics look on a white hull, in this case a late 90s 215 DC...

I could be wrong...  :scratch: but I think the last time I was in there, they only had the Tournament CAT version of the AS Tournament Logo (Sailfish), might need to call.

I'd be a tad leery of those old stock graphics. Depending on how they have been stored they may not stick worth a darn.

In my honest opinion, the newer graphics are kinda tacky.  The old ones are clean, simple, and classy, the way hull graphics should be. The hulls with the old badges, those were sweet.

Jimbo,
The graphics on the 215 I posted are my favorite.  I often wondered if a buyer could order a TM package boat but have the standard graphics as sort of a "delete" option... :scratch:
