[Rhodes22-list] Boat Lettering Size?

[Green, Sheldon]

Mary Lou,

Thanks for your inputs on Boat Size Lettering.   By the way.... are you /
did you move out of the Chesapeake Bay and move to Barnegat Bay?   If so,
give Robin and me a call or send us an email so that we might hook up this
summer.  FYI... Mariner's Marina is a great place to sail from (apporx. 99%
sailboats!).


Thanks, again.

Sheldon (and Robin) Green

Sheldon,
Fretless has 5 " lettering and it is visible. 6" would also be ok. The one 
thing I didn't do when we had ours done was pay enough attention to the 
spacing between the letters. If I ever have to do it over  (and I may not- 
they look brand new 5 years later) I'd spread them out a little further. 
See pic attached.
