Hand-Made Teak Quarterboards with Gold Leaf
Teak quarterboards, or nautical nameboards with gold leaf letters, always look great. We make them customized and by hand at Designs & Signs in Edgewater, Maryland. How long do they take? Typically, a pair of carved boards takes four weeks from drawing approval to completion. Boards without carved letters take about three weeks. Our team fashions each board by hand, from start to finish. First, we apply several base coats of TotalBoat Lust marine varnish. After that, the gold leaf lettering takes shape. The process is delicate, because gold leaf and size are fragile and challenging to handle. If you want to outfit your yacht with handsome handmade quarterboards, please call us or contact us by email for a quote.
Match Your Transom Name
Of course, you can order boards to match your transom name. First, send us a good photo of your transom. With that, we can usually find the font you need. If not, we can give you a price to recreate the vector file as required. After all, we have been designing signs for 30 years, so we can get your designs done in a timely fashion. Likewise, life rings with custom lettering will match your quarterboards. Together with sideboards and a gold leaf transom name, your yacht will surely attract attention and compliments at your marina and on the water too.
