Graphics

I have been all over the web looking for somebody that does graphic designs for sailboats. I'm painting the hull in December and I want to add the name and side graphics while it's on hard. Does anyone (Par?) know someone I can talk to that will not charge me more than the boat is worth? I can do the painting, even a little airbrush, or will consider vinyl. Just need the artwork.

Thanks, Much, but I have been to most of those sites before. What I really need is someone that can put the design I want into a form that I can transfer via a grid to my boat for painting , or camera ready for vinyl.

I might be able to do it my self. I have spent this rainy morning drawing my boat to scale in Auto Cad. I'm far from a graphics designer but I'll try to come up with what I want myself. That seems to be the way this whole project is going anyway. If you want it done right, or at least cheap, do it yourself.

Yipster,
--don't think the wife would share our idea of a perfect graphic. We have to be less creative.
