Can anyone give me advice on finishing my boat?  Can I get some sort of water resistant transfers, or stencils to put a spider design on my boat?  I'm getting close to completing the paint job and want my mark on my boat.

The kind of sticky-back plastic beloved by "Blue Peter" viewers of a certain age sticks well and can be cut to make designs. In fact getting it off again is generally the problem.

Another good idea (depending on the type of boat) is to use black grip tape (on the deck) as this provides grip as well as being nice looking - obviously no good for non trapeze boats!
Any one in need of quality carbon fibre work (tillers etc) at decent prices!

Cheers, the Blue Peter thing sounds ideal.  I bet it's more improved since I last watched BP.

Preovided your design is above the waterline go to a sign maker they can produce laser cut PVC designs at a very reasonable price that are very easy to apply.
