Hand-Painted Boat Names

Back in the day, brush lettering at marinas was the only way to letter a boat. Then vinyl arrived. Today, Avery vinyl or gold leaf film is the preferred material for fiberglass boats and yachts. However, there is still a need for painted boat names. Classic speedboats and luxury yachts often have wooden hulls, and these older vessels call for paint and brush. Hand-painted names are gorgeous! Once we finish, owners can add coats of varnish to protect the lettering.

First, we send a custom font portfolio for your review. Next, once you choose a font, we provide a scale drawing or mock photo of the transom. Finally, after approval, we paint your boat name by hand, including the outline and shadow. Questions? Contact us for a quote.
