I used a company called SAC Graphics a few years ago with good results. They had lettering made from a specially flexible vinyl that was suitable for use on tubes.

I think that they advertised in Boat Mart, but I don't have any current contact details for them though.

I also used SAC Graphics and was very happy with their 'sticky solutions'.

You could take a look at www.racelinedigital.com they have an excellent website, and althought they do mainly powerboats, Chris Martino does also offer a custom service at unbelievably low prices. They are based in Canada, but it only takes a couple of days by UPS or similar.

Thanks to all for the info.
Will be asking for quotes and ordering some graphics for the new boat and see how it will turn up.
Thanks again

Looking at their website they don't seem to do anything different from any other signwriting company - try your local one first - you MAY get a better deal - just tell them what you want it for!!!
