2. the pinstripe box logo with the helmet is INCORRECT
3. the colors for 10 METER, 10.8 METER and INTERNATIONAL are SILVER. This is incorrect, they were ordered in PEWTER.
Revisions are being made.
The good news is that all items in #2 and #3 above will be included along with the correct finished products, so you will have DOUBLES on these items !
I apologize for the delay, but it is all good !
I will post here when the orders ship.

With the exception of the logo "box", all replacement sets are now complete.
So we all get doubles on the script pieces.
I have ONE copy of the logo box to approve.
I will post pictures tomorrow.
I will not deposit Todd's check until all have shipped.

I took the newest version of the "logo" box and compared it with what is on the boat.
It is better than it was, the pinstripes are closer, but the helmet logo is now smaller than it was previously.
I took some tracing paper today and got an image of my own actual logo.
photo enclosed.
I will drop THAT off at the sign store and have those dimensions duplicated.
I apologize for this delay, but I want these to be as close to accurate as possible.
While the script is close, the logo must be an accurate reproduction.
I will post more info when we FINALLY ship.

We've also discovered that the port and starboard versions are reversed.
One set of the graphic below is being printed & cut for approval before doing a complete run.
Ignore the helmet pointed in the reverse direction - that item has already been addressed.
This item is the only thing we are waiting for, everything else is ready to ship.

Thanks for all your work getting these right! Is it the picture? or me, but the mane on the helmet looks a bit thicker than the original too. either way, they are sure to look great while boasting the make and model of my awesome Trojan!
She will wear them Proud!!! ( and keep EVERYBODY from asking "what kind a boat is that? "
Here's an ACTUAL VINYL test set of the logo itself.
I just picked these up today. (photo attached)
I will take a photo tomorrow of this one next to the factory set on BOTH sides, as one is a reverse design, but I believe and will confirm the helmet will be facing in the correct direction.
Here's today's photo...

Here's what may end up being the final version (FINALLY) of the helmet/stripe logo.
I need y'all to say YEA or NAY on this as the new helmet is slightly smaller than the factory one.
Also, the STARBOARD side factory helmet is pointing the wrong way . . . . . at least it is on my boat.........
I have corrected this on the replacements and there will be a definite left and right hand raked stripe box, however the helmet will be looking FORWARD in all versions that I am doing.
I don't know if just mine is wrong, or all of them were done wrong as a simple oversight.
So, please take a look here and shoot a YEA or NAY.

Personally I would like to see them all facing the correct direction as the logo was designed.
If y'all are good with this, I'll pull the trigger, I'd really like to get this finally done with.
If there is no objection I will get r dun - all facing forward....
Gentlemen?
