Matching boat registration numbers

[atfloyd]

I just brought home my 05 LSV. I would like to get some boat registration numbers that match the Moomba factory font. Any one have any luck?

Thanks

I'd take a picture of the lettering to a sign shop.......maybe they could match it up.

I had a very hard time with that also, however found some really good ones at DECALZONE.COM.

I ordered mine from there for my new 05 Mobius,,, they look good.

You can get a good idea what they would look like. You can choose the background, shadowing, outline, etc. and even enter your exact numbers and see exactly what it will look like.

I am a Moomba owner and I can match the font if you want to. I even have a "Doming" kit for the lettering. All my contact information is at www.sign-edge.com

Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks!

Would the Moomba folks tell us what the font is?

They probably can and will. They are probably just too busy building boats to read evey post on here. PM one of them and i'm sure they can help you out. Just click on the "team" link at the top-right corner of te screen, pick an administrator or moderator and send a personal message with your query.

Thanks for the input.......

I downloaded both fonts off of a couple of "free-font" websites. True they are a perfect match to Moomba and Mobius fonts, but when you type in a number, they go blank. The font author did not include numbers in the font set.

Ill keep looking around and download the font from a few other sites and see if its just the font files that I have. I may have to draw my numbers by hand (wouldnt be the first time).

If anybody else out there downloaded the fonts and had luck with numbers, please post a reply in here.

Most sign shops should be able to cut them for you. They will likely have the correct font (that is the full one they probably actually paid for). If you can't find one, call:
Wesson's Sign De-Signs
310 East Tennessee Street # B, Florence, AL 35630
(256) 766-7533

He did the lettering for my boat when we bought it new in '92, and the vinyl still looks like the day we put it on. Actually, it outlasted the gelcoat as i had the boat repainted 2 years ago. When i got it repainted, he also replicated the original decals for me (Supra doesn't have them anymore) for only $350. Shit, he even came in on a saturday to put them on for me. He recreated the them from rubbings i made of the old ones on unused newsprint. He's a great guy; tell em the guy with the red Supra Mariah sent you.

He's actually got a new set of decals for my starbord side sitting in his shop right now. I had to get them recut because a moron a seadoo rammed me.

For pics of the sign guy's handiwork, see this link: http://supraboats.com/msgboard/read.php?TID=526

I contacted Moomba a couple of months ago to get the "MOBIUS" logo in fileform. I received an answer once that the request had been forwarded to the marketing dept. Nothing since then even thought I sent a reminder.... probably realy to busy in building boats
