New Graphics

I have just completed removing the graphics from my 1997 U295 FT.  I am looking for ideas on how to make her look a little more modern.  If anyone has any photos or ideas on new graphics please send them my way.  The Casper look is kinda cool but just a liitle to much white.

Suspect that you can still see the outline of the original graphics, since they protected the gel coat from UV exposure for all those years.  So, I would start by considering replacing them with the same or just slightly larger graphics of the same basic design so that the outline of the originals does not show.

Check with guys in your area (you are in a "nautical area") who do boat lettering and graphics as well as those who do RV's.

first start by going to a few rv parks and take pictures of the designs that strike your fancy....the next step is ask the wife what colors she wants...your feelings dont count...dont fight it just do it...then go to a craft store and get a set of french curves...it is a plastic template that is made in a number of shapes all of them being smooth curves....while at the store get markers that are transparent in the colors that your wife pick out....now take a side picture of your coach and go to town...I had 13 samples before I came up with a design that we liked but what a fun experience...have fun and get wild...there is no right and wrong :D
