Now that I have your attention... ;D

OK, here's a draft of the design as a little teaser. Shirt will be the blue/denim/indigo color to echo the colors of the forum, and I'm printing black and white inks, with white gradations for all the shading you see.

I have a dilemma and maybe the board can help me out w/ some feedback. I'm trying hard to give the Center Console drivers some representation, but am having a bad case of creative block on how to do it. In fact, the back has been pretty much done for weeks now, but I keep having to go back to the drawing board with trying to get a CC on the shirt somewhere. I'd hate to exclude you guys, but I'm torn between that and going catering to the majority (being Steplifts). What do you guys, especially CC owners, think?
 
Chesapeake...if you did the original art, you are one great graphics artist!! :D...that's some great artwork...

I suppose it would be cost prohibitive to print seperate shirts for those CC riff-raff :-*

Great initiative...no matter how the CC issue works out, put me down for 5 shirts (1 for everybody in the fam; 2 for me...I seem to be a little ruff on t-shirts)...

I would also vote for using a heavy, good quality T...and have you considered sweat-shirts also...I need 4 if you do... 8)
 
Looks good the way it is. I wouldn't try or even worry about adding the CC. Too complicated. It's very clean, simple, and distinctive just the way it is.
Excellent work. When do you think they'd be available?
 
They are great!

How about a white long sleeve pocket T with that on the back? I like to keep the sun off my arms in the summer!
 
Thanks, guys. Before becoming a computer geek, I had a screenprinting business and I did all the design. I print on the side to stay out of the poorhouse, buy toys, pay for my crack habit (spider crack) etc. I actually designed it as a white T-shirt w/ black and two shades of blue ink. I'll post that tonight and everyone can see if they like that better. I think it might be the better route to go anyway, since it looks like there's demand for long sleeves, Gi-normous sizes, sweats, etc. Not all that stuff is available in the blue.

I figured the cuddy was the quintessential V-20, but I'm trying to be diplomatic. I'll do this: For Center Console guys, I'll do a special front print w/ a CC and this on the back.
 
Gi-normous sizes :o

Are you pcking on me!! ;D

Black will be real HOT in the sun!!!

I like short sleve T shirts!!

We will all have to decide on just a couple of things as,

You can please some of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time.

My Vote would be for the Blue T and then maybe a sweat shirt for the spring and fall months.

What ever we do lets make it as easy as possible for chesapeake the printer!!

After everyone gets a few T's & maybe Sweat shirts, you can contact him for some coustom work between you and him.

Hey BS before we all get going here we need 2 thumbs up from you!!!! What say bossman??
 
Chespeake - it's absolutely perfect!! Sign me up for 3.
(2Large, 1 XL) I like white long sleeve tee's, but sweat shirt would be nice too.

This would make one beautiful homepage design . . .

;D
 
I like it ! Owning a center console I do recognize that the cuddy is the origional steplift design and I would proud to wear it . But if you had a center console shirt I would buy a couple of those as well . Is the design going to be on the back ? If so have you thought about putting the origional steplift logo on or over the the pocket ? Just a thought .
 
I guess the only change I would make is to add the V 20 at the end of the bow rail & another 3 bar wellcraft mark on the tail end, just to break up the plain ness.

But I am not complaining!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
PRO - I really like the pic. It is a great angle for showing off the steplift's lines, although the boat looks a bit short. I also like the fact that you can't tell if it is an i/o or an outboard or a seadrive or a bracket boat or even if its a v21. ;D

CON - I don't like the lettering. The font looks... well ... crummy - jumbled  and messy - not elegant , bold and classy.  The T should be smaller than the V20. My eye sees WELLCRAF  TV20.

The www. and .com should be a little larger.

The WELLCRAFT should be a little smaller than V20.

Sized sumpin like this:

Hey BS that artwork could be incorporated into the page header...under the word logout...

Chesapeake...GOTTA have some HATS... 8)...white or kahki's good...blue would be...well..too blue... ::)
 
I don't mind the lack of the V-20 emblem (at the end of the bow rail) or the Wellcraft ensignia, since after my re-fit I left them off ;)

I enjoy watching people trying to figure out what she is!
 
Well, I guess I'll throw my 2 cents in also. I love the design, I was very exited to see it (ask the guys at work). I really like the suggestion of the V-20 logo on a front pocket. I also like the blue you have selected.
