  When I bought my '69 SR early this year, the original logos and striping were pretty rough, so I stripped it all off to start over.  I didn't want anything on the hull sides, to avoid dock, fender, and guide bunk damage.  I liked the clean, black-and-white look with the window frames and rub strip, so I decided not to restripe, and to put the lettering on the cabin sides.  The   'arima'  lettering is domed acrylic, which is thick and high-gloss.  The SeaRanger 19 is standard flat vinyl.   It's kind of plain, but I think I'm done.   Opinions ???

Looks great!  I removed all the stripes and lettering and only have the boat's name- LiLi in cursive where The Arima logo was.  Everyone knows it is an Arima anyway....

Really looks good!!   We did the same our 2001 22SL when we got it.   I think removing the horizontal striping that's just above the rub rail and then buffing it out makes these Arimas look a whole lot cleaner and newer..

   Yeah, typo on the '69, it's a '96   :doh:
      The lettering is from BoatDecals.biz   I recommend them.  They have an online site which allows you to design and preview your ideas.  Tough choices:  135 type styles, plus bold, italic, and shadowed.  60 colors, including metallic, and 'domed' style, which has a thick overlay of flexible clear resin for a 3-D look.  Not cheap, but great quality, delivered in a week from Indiana, exactly as ordered.
      My lettering for the logo was 'Eurostyle MN',  3" tall, domed, for  'arima',  and 1 1/2" tall for ' SeaRanger 19 '  The registration numbers are 'Eurostar' (not Eurostyle)   3" tall.  You need to be careful on the Reg. numbers - USCG specifies 3" block letters in a contrasting color.   For my black-and-white theme, all lettering is black.  Easy to install  IF  you follow instructions.
      Pricing:  Pair of registration numbers - $29.70  -  Pair of 3"X15"  'arima', domed,  $84.75 -  Pair of 15"X1.5"  'SeaRanger 19', $20.44   -  Shipping  $6.55   Tip:  I ordered my reg.numbers first, to check the quality, and got a discount coupon for my next order -  saved me $21 on the logo lettering.

Davidsea, that boat is exactly what I would want. My favorite of all the Arimas. Unfortunately, my garage wouldn't let me have it  :doh: That is the Swiss Army knife, do it all kinda boat. Big enough to run offshore, yet small enough to run solo and tow with a reasonably sized truck. Very nice looking boat! 👍
