Joe,
Congratulations,  I have an '87 Stan did his magic on our boat 2009.   
Our  "Rhodes 22" metal plate is 10 1/4" wide and 1- 9/16" high.  The 
flat white area above the rubrail is 2 -3/4" high constant from front to 
back.
What are you having done to the boat?

Following the GB guidelines (and in keeping with my own sense of style) I have elected to affix the name to the boat in the form of a nice brass or bronze plaque to the gunwhale side where the deck and hull are joined (near where the Rhodes 22 emblem is).
