Nice effort. If it's not too late to make changes, you might want to use the same font as the original SeaCraft logo for the word "SeaCraft"

Mainly gourmand with the exaggerated curved base serifs of goudy old style on the r and f. I think that just gourmand will do fine since it seems an exact match for the capital letters and strokes of the others.

If you have MS Word, type "SeaCraft" and change the font to 100 points Gourmand. Then change the character spacing for the letters "SeaCr" to condensed 6 pts. Set "a" to condensed 2 pts, and set "f" to condensed 6 pts. That will bring the letters closer and make the t and f connect, yet keep the a from touching the f.

Hope this helps.

The orders are coming in fast and furious [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I am trying to maybe correct "minor" ajustments to the stickers without going overboard and holding up production and keep the costs reasonable. The decals will be off the press in approx 10 days and I will start shipments then [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] Remember that this sticker is only 3"x3" and touching of certain letters might lose it's looks at a distance. I also have to consider "Trademarks" I appreciate everyones comments and I'll try to please [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Had I put this out prior, I would have received in excess of 500 suggestions on size, color, wording etc. So I figured I could not please everyone so I was better off "just doing it"and I'd take the heat afterwords....> I love this site!! Keep the orders coming!!! [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

BTW, Does STOP--->DROP---->and ROLL" work in HELL??? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: \"\"\"ATTENTION all owners of \"POTTER BUILT\" hulls!!
 
Good point about not going overboard on a 3" sticker. Maybe just change the font of "SeaCraft Classic" to Gourmand (if it's easy to do) and be done with it. FWIW, I already had that font info because I'm looking into original style side decals.

BTW, do we indicate the year of our boat with the order? (Maybe I missed that instruction somwhere)
