Design my boat

So my family has a 1970's american eagle ski boat. I've had it my whole life, but the finish on it needs to be totally redone, my dad wants to have a vinyl graphic on the side. He wants to lean towards a loud big graphic, I would prefer a more subtle one, so I'll leave it to see what you can come up with. It'll likely be painted in a pearl white undercoat.

And you can waste your time drawing dicks and stuff on it, and I'll probably laugh, but I won't use it, so make your own decision there.

I have no real compensation for you, other than appreciation, but I'm sure you guys would find it pretty cool to have your design printed on a boat. I'm open to anything.

my mistake, it's an '81. 350 hp too so it's quite a good boat.

red with a couple of white stripes, and on the bottom just plain white. i like red boats and with the white stripes it will look sweet oh yea and make the red really glossy!

either red or blue will do just fine

Thats a nice looking ski boat.

I miss my boat.

I need to get done with college so I can move back to the lakeshore and get one.

oh and paint it red with the bottom of the hull being white. really what colors do you have to choose from? it seems the boat is either blue or red....... or yellow on some boats.

Does the boat stay in the water or do you drop it in and pull it out every time you use it? If it stays in, dark color hull so the algae doesn't show.

I would say go with the stripes and circle with number idea like the car above. Maybe put like the year in the circle?

make it something similar to mastercraft boat designs. I can't take just solid colors on a boat.

I used to work with this 25' Bluefint. It was a custom shiny gray color. First time I've seen a color like that on a little boat. Get a nice custom paint job, solid color. Stripes, flames, pictures just look stupid in my opinion.

Thanks a lot guys. I'm liking the orange and racing stripes. Good call. I was also thinking about dressing it up like a 60's shelby gt.

Murder it out in matte black. Then murder the trailer out so it looks badass in and out of the water.

Picture this. An American flag running the length of the boat. In the top left hand corner, where the stars are, a flock of bald eagles rip through the blue star area carrying baby tigers in their talons. And name it The Assasinator. That's as classy as it gets
