Michael indicated that he could easily do this. He has a Mac so that makes it easy. I'll point him to this thread.

I don't know about plastic, but a nice SS plate would be awesome. I'm going to price this.

stainless steel with a fiber marking might last forever. I would like to use a thin piece of steel mounted to the original or a replacement plate could even do custom ones with your name here. My boat is in the water so any body got any measurements? I was going to take one off a buddies boat but chose not to since its so pretty and clean. I can also have more like the originals made i will look into pricing

My current plastic plate is intact and not very impressive. A SS plaque would make a classy replacement.Irafatsar wrote:stainless steel with a fiber marking might last forever.

Something like this with the MACGREGOR logo on an oval plate.

We make plates like those all the time Russ I will work on some designs. I need to visit this site more often. I think slightly smaller than the black plate will ad a nice border to the SS plate we are cutting tomorrow.

I think a nice script lettering would look nice, but maybe include the words Power Sailor in smaller lettering

I was seriously thinking of replacing the oval name plate with oval portholes that open.

Re: Macgregor 26M Sticker Rollup.......Again!
The original plate in SS would be great. Come up with a prototype and I'm sure you will have plenty of takers. Again, my vote is for a NICE SS plate etched. I bet you could get at least 25 boats X2 plates from this website alone. Could market them to BWY who would sell them also.Irafatsar wrote:We make plates like those all the time Russ I will work on some designs. I need to visit this site more often.

Very excited about an new name plate.

I don't own a ship. My boat has lots of SS parts. It's 2014.BOAT wrote:Cast in brass? (like on real ships?)
As for copyright. Roger doesn't sell boats anymore. If he has a problem with making his boats look better and wants to sue for it, that would make him look like a real ass hat.
Don't cha hate lawyers?
