Sea Craft stainless name plate question

I bought 4 of these way back in my Sea Craft years, from Carla. Never installed them. Now I'm trying to figure out- what are these called?

My emblems?

I’d be interested in a set if bump doesn’t need them all

SeaCraft emblems
 
FYI
Carla had these stainless steel emblems made in two sizes. I bought the larger one for the glovebox door on my 20’ Seafari. The shorter one, IMO, would look good where the decals were near the aft vents.

Thanks Terry. Mine are 9 1/2" long. Steve T

While we are on the subject, I have been trying to find a way to fabricate stainless emblems made like the examples Ed used on his 20 rebuild for a client. He gave me the contact at Exone Printing. I forgot who initiated that project but remember it was a fairly involved thread. My problem is how to design a Potter vintage emblem with the Garamond (ish) font. The Moesley era script can be one piece. I’d love to have the period correct emblem like a Bertram. Probably a long shot.

The originals are rare. Here are the ones I pulled from my Seafari.

We need to contact flexpat. He’s got a cad file for the reproductions that were made around here a few years back. I’ll message him I have his cell phone.

If this comes to fruition, I'll commit to 4 of them.

Emblems

Mine are in the gun safe....

Could someone go straight to Exone and do they have the files?

Xcomunic8d 01-19-2022 10:52 PM

I called Mitch. Aka flexpat. He’s really busy at work but he’s going to make a write up on this and will ask the mods. He mentioned you nobones by name.

He will try to post a place for the cad files and he said he has several of the numbers already rendered. I don’t recall which ones specifically so we can ask him but It sounded like most to all hull sizes.

I’m supposed to bug him in 2 weeks if it’s not posted. He said about $100/emblem or $200 to both sides.

Thanks for the link NoBones. Ed gave me a phone number about a year or two back and I spoke to someone there. It sounded easy enough to pull the trigger but my rebuild costs were piling up at the time. Definitely a class addition to your project. I’m trying to figure out how to do the Potter style with having 8 separate letter castings (and 16 threaded stud holes) through the hull sides.

I'm posting mine up in the FS section, if anyone is interested. Steve T
