I like the last one best but I dont know about the big logo on the side. I'm a less is best type.

As a white boat owner, no problems with reflection.

Same here. Grey carpet doesn't reflect light back at you.

Try a red camo on the engine to tie the trailer and the boat together. Just a thought.

That's not my boat or trailer, but a stock photo of a Triton.  Mine is black frame with red fenders "faded" that we're going to wrap.

There is a black Kriptek that is available that I can do the motor, poles and trailer fenders.

The big logo is advertisement.

Arti-FISH-ial Entertainment is the name of my guide business which I do very part time for now. The plan is to grow it and FDx as I step away from H3 and let the boys run the construction operations.

Nice!!  ~c~

FD, copy but I'd recommend a smaller font and block letters.

I like the font size font type, font color.  Just adds some nice color and contract to the mostly white hull design.  Gotta have a little style in ones life.  Always nice to have something stand out expecially if it has any form of advertising responsibility.  I urge you to adopt design #2.  Go Bold ! !

Funny how I usually agree with Barry. I like the design and lettering however it takes a few seconds to figure out and read. Block or other type of lettering would be easier to read. I like it though!

2 or 4 for me with #2 the best.

I'd try the  Motor and PP's in a Black/Red version of the Kryptic and see how that looks.

personally i like the third -- the grey and black are a little more subdued.

Number 5. It is number 4 with some minor tweaks of the smaller logos font and placement .  I was going back and forth between 2 and 4 and finally had to decide.

This is the black Kryptek that is going on the motor, poles and trailer.

I like 5. I think the red trailer is throwing it off visually. Should look good in the water.

Just being nosy and maybe I missed it but what's the ballpark cost to wrap a 20' boat?

First draft of the Seadek layout. I've already made some changes but wanted to take y'all through the entire process.

I'm swapping position of the FDX and AE logos.

I'm also thinking about rotating the AE logo 180* on the battery compartment so you can read it it right side up from the cockpit. Any thoughts?

Most of the original small black step pads we thought we were going to leave in place, but the more we cleaned everything else, the worse they looked. At $18 per SF installed I decided to replace them all.

I like the idea of new material on the steps. Make sure it sticks out with having clients on board.

My wife broke her leg on a charter in Florida in Toho. The whole boat was white and being sunny with sunglasses she missed the step.

Oh she finished the fishing trip and caught a 10 lber.

The decal on the battery box needs flipped 180 like you said.

Lee you are truly a class act.  I have followed your exploits from the time you were having your truck built thru the new home purchase and then the subsequent shop you built in the garage.  Now we are seeing the final plans for your boat.  For sure the world stands aside for a man with a plan.

The topper on the cake has to be the  generosity you exhibited during the past two Adopt a Family projects.  All of this has been spectacular.  I have a hunch that you are far from being done and look forward to you revealing your next plans whatever they may be.  ~c~ ~c~ ~c~ ~c~ ~c~

There is nothing left attached to the top cap. Final cleaning of the gel coat today and off to the wrapper.
