Hull numbers.

[Mekanix]

Just got the registration papers back for my sportster and the number they gave me is different than the number on the boat so I have to change them to match.

I kind of like the font on it now and I'd like to get the same for the new numbers but I can't figure out what this font is.
Any idea's ?



Also, Got any suggestions ?
I've been searching Ebay and there are lots of options but I'm not too sure what would look good until I see it installed

Accent URW looks kinda close, then outlined.

#10 is kinda close and #2 It's almost is BRUSH font too but the O is a little funky.

Kind of a hassle now but can you request that you re-use the old numbers with the new registration?
I know in NY there is a spot on the application asking if there are already registration numbers on the boat.

Boat looks nice, you did quite well IMO.

I have ordered probably a dozen sets of decals from this guy, good quality vinyl, fast turnaround (like 1 day) and excellent prices. I have sent him links to photobucket pictures (closeups, not from 30 feet lol) and he was able to figure out the font, or something very very close.

send him a pic of what you have if you like and he can try to match.

Alright guys I think it's time I confess.... I hate those hull numbers. IMO I think the OP should scrape them off, go pick up a set at the local Canadian Tire, slap them on there, and be done.

 

[Mekanix]

Tried to get the numbers changed but its never been registered in Canada, so I have to use what they say to. I tried though.

This is what The Canadian tire numbers look like: Still have enough to do the boat but I don't like look. Its too square and some of the characters are bigger than others.
I was planning on getting a set for all 3 machines once I found a good font.

It's the way those numbers on your boat are touching or overlapped I think that I dislike. The font is pretty good but I think you're being inflexible concerning other font styles.

 

[Mekanix]

Oh I'm flexible, Just haven't chosen any before for a boat and thought the one on there looked alright
It is a one piece label on there and that's part of the reason it looks squished. I wouldn't mind the font being separated or a different font as long as it came on a transfer sheet that kept them aligned.

Here is where I get mine. They seem to stick fine and are cheap. Very easy guys to deal with, you can just call them and tell them what font, size and color or colors you want. If its easier you can send them to my US P.O. box and I will pick them up and mail them to you.

Hey Mekanix, Are those green numbers the HIN number? Where did the boat come from?

 

[Mekanix]

Yeah its the hin
Po thought that was the hull license number and had decals made. I guess he never did register it here. It was from NY though. I still have the original transfer papers.
The new numbers are NS334something... meaning it was never registered. If it was there would be a number starting with 24A......



Westcoast decalz looks pretty good. There's so many choices.

I have also ordered registration numbers from this seller. I bought them for XP800 Limited #1, but haven't installed them yet, still cleaning up the ski a bit before I put the new numbers on it. I wouldn't hesitate to order more for my other jet skis and boat. It was a crazy fast turn around also. I went with the "Digital Font w/ drop shadow effect".
