\"\"\"ATTENTION all owners of \"POTTER BUILT\" hulls!!

[Capt Chuck]

Ok Guys, Here’s the Scoop!!!

For the last couple of months I have been working on this project. I saw a picture of Bill Potter’s personal boat after restoration. His son had put “Potter Built II” in small black letters next to the SeaCraft Logo. This gave me the idea.

Basically I wanted something that would designate the “Potter era” built hulls. Don’t take this wrong, as I’m not suggesting that the Tracker or CSY constructed hulls are not worthy but only that those of us with the Potter hulls are proud of the heritage. Right around this time, as I was bouncing ideas around, I happen to run intro Mr. Potter at the Stuart boat show. I presented my idea to him. He had no objections. As things progressed I also wanted to incorporate the “Classic SeaCraft.Com” that we are all familiar with. I worked with Tara, a creative designer of “Tara Biek Creative” a service-oriented ad agency based here in Stuart, Florida. I ran the idea and final design by “Trayder” our CSC administrator and received his blessing also.Now available is the “Classic SeaCraft Potter Built HDS” (hull designation sticker)
Be among the first to proudly display your HDS sticker on your Potter Built SeaCraft!! (1969- May 1980) Wouldn’t this sticker look great displayed on your Potter Hull? Mark, one of proud CSC Board Members, has already ordered his and suggested placing it under the hull number on the transom. I agree, or you could get two and place them next to the registration numbers or the aft vents on the port and starboard sides. Personally, I’m going to get several and I’m going to put them on my tackle box, car window, dock box and the boat trailer!!! “HERE'SHOW TO ORDER YOURS”
I have agreed to handle all the transactions and accounting. I will be making NO money on these stickers. You will be asked to pay the actual cost $1.75 each plus $.50 for the mailing envelope and stamp plus $1.00 to be donated to the CSC Web Site, which will help defer the operating costs. That’s right people! Just $3.50 each, for this wonderful enhancement to your Classic SeaCraft. The hull you are so proud of and will be for many years. These 3”x 3” stickers are made from marine grade vinyl, easy to install and will last for many boating seasons! Please order as many as you like. I have already spent close to $400 of my own money for setup, graphic fees and initial order of 200 stickers. (No Credit Cards) or send me a Check / Money Order to: pm me for mailing & payment instructions. Be sure to include your shipping address, number of stickers and what year you want on each. Also please verify your order with me via email.

I welcome any comments on these stickers. If you don’t like them, you can tell me too or just go soak your head!

BTW, if you are ever in the need for any custom affordable graphic design, art direction, copy writing, photography & print management then keep Tara in mind. www.tarabiekcreative.com

It looks off blown up so large but better in the 3"x3" size.

Well Don we tried Brotha! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It's real hard for the graphic designer when it gets that small. But the basic VD design lines were all that I was trying to project visually. Originally I had four colors but the vinyl lettering just could not accomplished [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

After awhile of being seen over again, I'm hoping the Red/Black/Gold sticker will be recognized by the boating public and other SeaCrafters just like the State Registration sticker! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I'll see if I can get the VD lines straightned out a little more like the transom vs amidships [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I should know this but....

I have a Paypal account. It says that I am not verified, I can verify by punching in my bank account, which I don't particularily want to do...

I also have the option to "Send Money". It goes on to say that "Pay anyone with an email address - even if they don't have a PayPal account".

The question is can I punch in your email address and will the transaction work? Or do I have to verify first for it to work?

Almost makes me wish I'd kept my '77 18' so I could order stickers for two different years [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
