warning stickers for coded boats

[Nick_H]

Does anyone know of a company who sells these off the shelf. Stickers like
"No access to Flybridge in adverse conditions", and also location stickers for liferaft, extinguishers etc.

Speak to John or David at www.mendezmarine.co.uk

A forumite here makes boat name stickers, he'd probably make them for you any size colour or whatever.

Csail??

 

[Nick_H]

yep, that's my fall back option, I just wondered if they were avialable off the shelf anywhere, as the wording is fairly standard.

One of the little Brother label making machines did for us. They fade gradually in the sun but only take a few seconds to redo and replace.

Use my brother label print machine on the boat nick. It has tapes in black-on-clear, which is the main one, plus black-on-white, black-on-yellow, white-on-clear, and black-on-silver. It does all different font sizes and stuff. Are you there now? J knows where is it and can give it to you. I'm there at wkend

If you want symbols for LR/LJ you can buy them form various online chandlers. The shop just past Blue Lady in Antibes does them, but they're vvv expensive from there. Like, 30euros each!

I'm in Blighty, and not back on the boat till the day before the survey, so need to get them sorted here really, so I know i've got them. Is the machine like this? If so, that's easy, £80 and I can do my own.

I have the same machine jfm is talking about, the older version of this:

I can print the label here for you and send them to you if you want. I think I've only got Black on clear. Thats what i used to label stuff on my boat, now i think of it.

EDIT THAT!!!

This is my EXACT machine.

Let me know if you want them done.

I have 18mm Black on Clear, and 18mm Blue on White, max. 4 lines, if your interested.

Mine's one with own keyboard, a bit like Al's. The one in your pic needs a PC. If you only want text and box/borders you might be batter with a keyboard type, about £30 for summink quite decent. f you want to make labels with symbols for LRs and LJs you need one that connects to PC

You're welcome to borrow mine if you wish, and the selection of tapes as per post above. It's on the boat permanently. Though they're so cheap, as you say, you might want to buy one. Up to you!

Marvellous, I may get hold of one in the meantime, but if not I should have time on the evening of the 12th to borrow yours and print some off. Thx.
