What is a good source for C-Cory green registration numbers? I see West Marine has the number kits but not in that color.

Any local vinyl sign shop should be able to match the color and make what you want. Have them printed on one sheet and they're much easier to apply.

Make sure they are block letters at least 3" high.

BOATUS has some nice ones. You can even preview different fonts and positive/negative angles. Here is the web link.

Thanks all. The boatgraphics site looks pretty slick, even though a little spendy.

I had good luck going through Fast Signs. I also used a Pantone color chart to determine the closest match to "C-Dory Green" and found it to be "Pantone 3308C".

Good luck!

That's funny Captain Matt. Caryn and I have always referred to it as C-Dory Green and if you look at pics of our boat, you know that we're serious about it! Wink

I also worked with Fast Signs in Tacoma Wa and a lot of it
can be done with email. And yes the color can be what ever
you want it to be as well as the font. I was happy. Picture of
the numbers on my boat on my photo area.

Harvey of "Sleepy C" referred me to www.speedysigns.com. I ordered the boat name and registration numbers and received them in a couple of days. We have not applied them yet but they look great.
