Still with the CA registration

Jim's Dorie ready to morph into SleepyC

Hair dryer, gets plenty hot, rubbed, (scrapped), off old name with a piece of flattened dowel.

A Blank Canvass. All clean and ready for the new name. Cleaned with GooGone and ETOH.

Working on the "Name change thing" and applying the moisture adhesive before the decal.

Laying on the decal takes both hands and no breeze.

Smoothing the bubbles out from under the decal. A credit card would work for this part too.

Working out the tiny bubbles toward the edge.

Lettering nearly fills the flat portion of the space.

Sleepy C, portside name decal installed. Font is "Epilog" and is 8" from top to bottom. Big and simple enough and to read from a distance. *

Position is cleaned, wiped down with alcohol, dried, measured and marked.

Finally get to make it an "Official C-Dory". Probably came with the old style decals but were removed by Jim to mount the rod holders.

Peeling the "transport" layer off, after insuring the proper position.

Positioning the decal, port side.

Measuring for alignment and duplication on starbd side too.

Positioning according to marks on backing paper.

OK, Now we are one Officially. Raised letter version, but without the phone number info. *

Over night at Port Townsend with the Julie Anne crew. Dark night on the water. *

Friends Cal 09 Oct. SleepyC at the Boat Haven dock, Port Townsend. Too dark to make the run into Mystery Bay.

Had to hurry to get it done before sunset, then look what I found.

Reflected Sunset color matched the SleepyC logo color at just the right time.
