HELP - CHAMPION RAISED HULL DECAL

[fishthenation]

Hey folks.

My fiberglass shop is completely out of the CHAMPION RAISED HULL DECALS.

C & O is completely out of them, and of the Champ factory is not in action at this time. This would be C & O Marine part#: 7C312. http://www.candomarineparts.co....html

Is there anywhere else I can get these? My boat is completed, awaiting these two decals.

Thanks, Tom c

Have you tried your dealer? I am not certain, but some dealers may have some...

[fishthenation]

Hi Lea.

Yea...I've now tried FREEDOM OUTDOORS, QUAM'S MOTOR SPORTS and of course C & O MARINE.

Anyone else you think may have them???? I'm really in a tough situation now.

I can't believe we can't just go directly to the manufacturer of them???

thanks, Tom C

Hey Fish,

Check out the Champion apparel site, not sure if they have it...

Another option is http://www.iguanagrafix.com/def.htm they are good, and a sponsor.

Good luck, Rob

[fishthenation]

Nope. No luck :-(

[WaYoop]

Iquana will custom make what you need, I think...

try Eberlin Boats. I got a couple there but it's been a couple of years ago.

[fishthenation]

I will check on the Custom Option---but that sounds extremely expensive.

I called Eberlin---no luck.


Any other places whom may have them? Do you guys know who the OEM is??

[Mizzou211]

Check out domednumbers.com and see if they can make you some. I got my reg numbers there and they turned out great.

This guy in Nashville is selling some - but does not appear to be the raised version:

And this place might be able to do the rasied style?

Try any Nichols Marine store in OK and TX, or Angler's Marine in Anaheim, CA, or Reading Boat Works in Reading, PA. All of these are long-time Champion dealers.

Just giving everyone a heads up that C&O has found some more of the old style molded hull decals....the ones that are like 16" x 3.5"......I just ordered up a couple..

Need to get the vendor name so we can lobby for continuing supply...

If you get them froma place like domednumbers.com wouldn't that be illegal? I don't personally care what you do, but I respect copyrights of artwork.

If you buy a legit Champion Logo, doesn't Champion, or its holders, get some royalties that should help keep the name going?

I used to work for a Shop that created the OEM Decals for Harley, Yamaha, Polaris, Trek and etc... That artwork was all protected and if we let it out to the public, there would be hell to be paid.

I am not talking about C&O. They sell OEM...

I mean once C&O is sold out - it would be nice if Carol (the parts Mom) could turn us on to the company who made the originals so we could lobby them to keep supplying C&O - The fact is the ChampioN Nation will never let the brand die period...

I know my dad has one maybe two i will find out but it may cost you if he will let them go.
