Stickers or paint?

 

Once a boat has a license number on it is it ever removed? I heard it is bad luck.

 

whats the best way to go paint/stencil or a premade sticker?

Like car pin striping are there guys that do numbers?

Any sign company can do it for you, in vinyl.

Depends on the boat. my old tinny was stencil and a can of white spray paint. Not pretty but it's legal. New boat nice vinyl stickers.

canadian tire sells the numbers and letters for you boat.

Stickers work well and look better than a homemade stencil job.

And yes the numbers can be changed. When I bought my used/new boat I got new numbers and removed the old ones. I like the new ones because they specify the province (i.e. "ON").

If you head down to Buffalo, stop at Gander Mountain. They always have the numbers and letters on sale for $0.01 per number on clearance. Or just buy the pack. They are neater and easy to apply compared to hand painting.

A sign shop (though pricey) can give you a huge selection of colours and font types. Your biggest choice options will come from a sign shop.

 

BPS has a number kit as well.
