New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

OK all,

What ideas do you have for a new 2007 tee shirt?

One idea that I has was to create a shirt collage. Here is a rough first pass. My wife thinks that it looks way too busy.

Any way let me know what you want to do. As in year's past, one we gets things narrowed down we will puut it to a CSC vote and then take it from there.

I agree with the busy part. How would those pictures show up on a shirt?

I would like to see something that shows the basic lines of the seacraft, hull only maybe. Also I vote for a 20' hull because the last two shirts were 23's. Granted the 23 hull is famous but I am partial to the 20's. :D

Maybe a side profile with the lettering like you are showing. Or the original script like the original emblem that 65 Bowrider has. I am sure collectively we can come up with something.

Peter, It is a great idea, except till the screen printer
sees it. To get real definition would be difficult.
I was in charge of T-Shirt sales for the Halifax Sport Fishing Club and the Greater Daytona Beach Striking Fish Tournement for a long time. The printers will tell you,
5 colors max for clarity.

See ya, Ken

I think a line drawing of the Seafari photo from the '69 Boating article screen printed on a t-shirt would be great.

A line drawing is easy to screen print, even if detailed, is only one color, saving on costs, doesn't violate copyright laws, and it's a fantastic picture, clearly showing the VDH hull design we're all so fond of braggin about.

Better yet would be permission to reprint the whole jpg on a t-shirt. If we include the Boating magazine logo, we would probably get such permission. But we do need to ask.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Peter,

I like your idea of including all boat designs in the coming year T-shirt.
I have picturs of the 19 & 27. If someone is a guru on photo editing, they might be able to convert the photos to a line drawing?
I know there are boxes full on the west coast of Fla and I'll be glad to help in any way I can.

I know I speak for everyone, when I say that we appreciate your efforts so much. I enjoy wearing my CSC T-shirt!

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

I like the picture of the Safari or the Bow Rider. Converted to a line drawing showing the hull lines and the reverse chines on the VDS hull would be sharp. Nice Pics.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Actually, one of the other ideas that was played with was to lift the line drawings from the SeaCraft literature. I will post some stuff.

We'll get there.

Thanks for the great input. Keep it coming.

Peter

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Well I gotta say I do like the idea of the Seafari!! Well I guess you can guess why!!! But I would love to have anything a creative SeaCraft Artist would put together for us!!!!! Thanks for your efforts!!!! :D

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

I guess I'm in the minority but I like the first one with the multiple pics on it

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Ok, here is something from Carla (aka 85Bowrider)

What do you guys think of the idea of the sketches?

Thank you Carla for putting this together.

Peter

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

I like this one, would we need to get permission to use the picture? Something retro would be nice!

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Looks great! Can we include the bowrider? And spell Seafari rite? :D

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

is it me or is there a chunk missing out of the bow on that boat?

strick

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Looks like it!

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

It's you ChucK. Just a camera angle I suppose. Those low bow rails were cut short of wrapping around as to leave clearance (an opening) for anchoring and bow lines ;)

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

The second rendition looks good. Just a thought...since the Moesly-era logo is being used on this version, why not stick to Moesly-era boats only? Delete the 23' and add in the 21'.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Scott,
Your thoughts are kind, but I feel this site is for all Classic SeaCrafts, and the 23 is a very popular model.
And maybe even have the 'SeaCraft' changed to 'Classic SeaCrafts' in this site's font.

Whichever way we go, I know I'll be getting another 2 T-Shirts!

Any room to get the SF20 on the shirt too?

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

I like the photos converted to line drawings design, that would look very sharp white on a dark colored shirt similiar to this years design or reversed, dark on a light colored shirt.
But, I still think we should stick with one hull, one picture, whichever WE decide. I feel it makes a better statement for other viewing the graphic on the front or back. If you have multiple pictures like that it honors all the boats, which is great but I think you lose the classic lines of the hull because the drawings are to small. Besides if we put all the boats on this years shirt what are we going to do next year? :D

Regardless, I will be buying a few anyway, just my .02
I'm biased but I vote for that 20SF picture. As a line drawing that would look awsome and let people know right away what a Seacraft is all about. Keep the discussion going, WE will come up with something. :D

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Just an idea I had. How about a shirt of the actual line drawings from Mr. Moesly's hull patent, blue line on white shirts and white line on blue shirts with Classic SeaCraft logo.-Paul

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

I agree with Paul, simple is better. And colored lines on white shirts.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Looks like they might be running from JAWS!!! After he just took the chunk out of the bow!!! "looks like we're gonna need a bigger boat!!!"

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Maybe a catchy phrase:

"Life's too short to own an ugly boat"

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Whatever the design I would like to suggest they be 100% cotton - Beefy T's or comparable. The synthetic blends are not as comfortable in the heat of the summer and they don't hold up as well. Thanks for your hard work on the last version Peter. I am sure the next run will be just as good.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

I know that John R is quite the artist. John did the drawing for the last tee shirt.

If John or anyone else out there wants to post some sketches that would be greatly appreciated.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

i personally like the picture of the SF20 in the air for the shirt. and the slogan on the picture is perfect for it too. you've heard of it.. everyone i talk to has heard of seacrafts

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Here is one way to do it. I am not saying that it THE way. Just a start.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

I like it!!!

Maybe clean up the reflection lines a little to clean up the hull. But it looks good. :D

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

YES!
thats one of the best shots of a 20 SF.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

How about if we used white lettering and printed it on a light blue shirt?

Kind of like this:

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

i think the white shirt back ground would look better.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

hermit, do you happen to know what year that was printed and where it came from? my dad and i are wondering. if u look closely at the pic it is just the bow rail on the front that looks funny.

Re: New Tee Shirt Ideas
 

Let's cut and paste scantily dressed hotties at the helm. :D
