Looks real good..! Just make sure those boat #'s are the correct sizing. I know around here they are real sticklers about it...

Looks good. What vinyl/lam did you use? Is it on the back as well or just the sides? If on the back as well, did you have to take off anything (the motor, ladders, etc). What did you charge for it? How big was the boat and do you remember how many square feet of material you used?

Sorry for the questions, just curious.

I too have a question about the vinyl.

I just read an article the other day about boat wraps and they mentioned the air release vinyls are not very good for boats due to the water getting into the groves.

That's what I'm wondering. How long will a boat wrap last?

That looks AWFUL!!!!!! AWFUL NICE!

I'd like to wrap my 20' fishing boat just like that someday. I have the plan to make the wrap look as if the side of the boat is transparent. Boat batteries, life vests, live wells, wiring, fishing rods, sonar, anchor and rope. All of the stuff that just lays in the lockers so I thought it might look cool to have the effect of a transparent side.

I like the fact that you used nice bright colors and kept the whole thing super-legible. I'm curious about the application time and general price on it. Looks like it should be a good money maker for you. Nice job!

Fish....

I use all 3M Products for Wraps, 180. I am going to try Oracal when I get low due to price and the good feedback.

what about the air channels, i've heard not to use air egress because of water getting in? must be tough to install without though, huh?
