Shawn, if not available from Fairline, then if you can get a decent photo of want you want then someone like FunkyMonkey will make some up for you.

but you will need a decent Photo for starters; one taken to eliminate the effects of perspective.


And these people have a good library of makers' names.

Boat names are the place to go to as they probably made the original ones for Fairline.

I ordered mine from essex boatyards, they have those on stock. However, the original 'thick' ones (that are proud of the surface) are no longer available so you get to choose from two colors of 'flat' vinyl stickers.

The two options were plain blue (£32 ex vat) and silver with a shadow (£35.99 ex vat). Prices for one, a year ago. You'll probably find them cheaper from one of the companies mentioned here. I went for the latter:

The old ones came off relatively easily with a hot air gun which is essential for the job, IMHO.

I also replaced the slightly faded Fairline 'crests' -thingys on the sides:

Scubaman,

Did these come from Fairline or from an independant? If so was it the boat names.co.uk site?

Sorry to hijack Shaun..

I got them from Essex Boatyards so they are more or less the 'factory originals'. They came complete with the letters but I've only changed the logos so far.

I wanted to get the originals as there is curvature in the bulwark and I thought they'd fit better + the logo is not at simple as it seems.

I hate to tell you this but where do you think that EBY and Fairline get their decals from? You guessed it, more often than not, from 'boat-names' who made the originals!
