I've had great experiences with DIYlettering.com on all the boats and old cars where I needed reg. numbers or to duplicate or come close to some old decal or badge. They have a wide selection of fonts, styles, effects and colors. Here's are examples from our lake boat, not our Grady, but you...

Revive the thread as the Spring is here... I'm very new to salt water boating but here is what I've learned so far. There are a few places in Onset; Marc Anthony's has some of the best pizza on the Cape, Quahog Republic is decent, both are a short walk from the Town docks. Soprano's on...

Congrats, enjoy her!

Congrats! Many happy trips. I miss my few years living in Palo Alto....

Our new to us '19 Freedom 325. Getting a lift in Falmouth, MA;

Just named ours last week. I chose to offset the name to port as the across the transom location looks great, but is always partially obstructed by the motors. BTW DIYLettering.com is fantastic; quality products and great design tool.

Excellent tip, thank you. Was too focused on not hitting anything while leaving the marina to think about lines, etc.:) Thinking about it, I believe the Captain I'm using did that later.

Pics. From a training cruise around Buzzards Bay, second hour in her...trouble with learning is you don't get to fully enjoy the view:-)

Thanks. We were actually looking for a 307, we know folks who have and love theirs, but there were none available that met our parameters (location, hours, condition, etc.)...so it came down to this and a Pursuit 295 and we much preferred this.

Hi All, new member here and new GW owner. Finally found an activity the entire family enjoys together and stepping up from an antique 18' inboard lake boat. Fun first few trips and lots to learn.
