Does anyone know where to get Grady White decals and striping for my 201. I tried the Grady White web site but couldn't find decals
 
Went to my dealer in Charleston for my re-stripe. She ordered everything through Grady-White.
Went from '04 graphics to '21 graphics. Cleaned it up nicely.

2004 graphics on top, 2021 graphics on bottom.

for Grady white decals. I got this tip from another member and they are excellent. Not cheap. But excellent.

I bought the ones on eBay that were a dead ringer for the OEM ones that aren't produced anymore, with one minor exception - they are about 1/8" shorter. Polished out most of the ghosting and the rest faded over time.

The eBay seller offers them in both black/gold and navy/gold. I went navy.

I had those eBay decals before and they are very good. But when my boat was waxed the wax also contained compound and the blue came off to reveal the gold under it. I'm not sure if the current ones would have the same issue or just don't wax the decals.

That was the reason I swapped mine out. The inexperienced detailer who did my boat hit the OEM ones with the buffer and spun the navy off, revealing the gold behind it.
 
My local dealer, in Massachusetts, had about a dozen stripes to choose from. I also opted for the new Grady logo for my 04 Fisherman
 
I just joined this group and immediately found the answer I was looking for (Decals, thank you). What about the blue striping? My 19' Tournament has some dock rash from the previous owners and she'd sure look a bit prettier if that was replaced as well. Any thoughts on those or would the above suggestions do? Thanks in advance...
 
The striping on my 2004 180 was all chewed up when I got it. I figured new decals were the price of a decent fishing reel so I went minimalist, and I like it....

That's the launch ramp in Norwalk, I'm docked at Ischoda Yacht Club.

You in Stamford? I'll look out for you. I fish primarily between Darien and Bridgeport, Eatons to Stratford Shoals. Boat has a top now....

I'm in Greenwich and fish west of you.
Did you get any bonita this year?
 
No , the albies came in on LI north Shore around Cranes Neck, might even still be around, but I didn't see any on The CT side. Going out in the morning though.
 
Has anyone ever tried to spray on the stripes? I am planning to do that on my 209
 
Interesting concept. Can you sucessfully spray paint gelcoat? I'm not sure if I like the permanence of it with relation to touch up or replacement.
Do it and let's see...
