This Fleming boat name belongs to YOHO, with her hailing port in Vancouver, BC. We lettered the name in bold capitals of burnished silver leaf film. Each letter sits on a black Avery outline.

A bold Fleming boat name

A short Fleming boat name like YOHO calls for big, simple letters. As a result, the name fills the wide transom and reads easily from across the marina. The rounded capitals also give it a modern, friendly look. In addition, burnished silver has a soft, satin shine, so it looks rich next to the teak cap rail and stainless rails.

Why black around burnished silver

On any yacht, silver on a white hull can fade from a distance. For that reason, a thin black outline frames each letter. That way, the short name still has presence on a big Fleming hull. The hailing port sits below in clean capitals, so the layout stays balanced.

Lettering a Fleming boat name

We letter many Fleming yachts, so we know their transoms well. First, we lay out the name to scale and send a mock photo on your own boat. Next, we install the black Avery outline and lay the silver leaf film on top, much like vinyl. For other Fleming names, see True North, Hummingbird and Pearl.
