Choosing a name for a boat is not easy and should be done with care or you'll end up with a boat called Boris or something stupid like that. When you find a boat you like, it can sometimes be a good idea to get it re-designed with vinyls and spray moulds. Thus custiomising and personalising it to you. If you need vinyls for your boat just ask in here as the moderator of this forum also runs http://www.vinylspeed.com a Vinyl Livery Company. Our main focus is Aviation & Boating although we started doing simple shop fronts and signs we've moved into the Boating & Aviation Worlds using clever contacts and shear determination.
