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.

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.

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.

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,

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!
