boat graphics: cornish cruising
Posted by Paul Rollason on May 23, 2005 at 5:51 pmThese are our biggest boat names to date
each are 8m long and 500mm high and were fitted with the boats in the water.

It wasn’t that bad to tell the truth.
If we had had the boats lifted out of the water the cost would have doubled what with craning and having to erect staging and all.
With the boats alongside a pontoon you are a reasonable hight to work albeit on your knees.
Using the pontoon was also quick.a couple of hours for each one asopposed to a whole day if they were lifted out.

Nice job Paul 😀 …. dont think we will get much call for any boats around here … we have the river Wye running through but not many boats on it 😕 Although we did do some graphics for oars… “if you find me please return to” kind of things for canoes :lol1:

how many squeeges did you drop
that’s x pounds for the lettering £50 for lost squeeges

We didn’t lose anything in the water but people did keep getting on and off the boat all the time so we would just get to a awkward bit and the boat would go down by about a foot and then pop back up again.
why I oughta

Few questions Paul out of interest what type of material did you use for this? I would ‘ve though it needed pretty durable stuff for the sea.

That’s only one question Goop
We used multi-fix 7000 from victory we find it very easy to use and durable.

Hi Nik
The photograph was taken by a local press photographer and the company (cornish cruising) let me have a copy.
It’s going to look great on my website when I get time to build one
