Bill, if you can email me your engine serial number, I can see what I
can find for you. I work for Sea Ray Boat dealership in Washington
state.

Find out who your manufacturer rep is and call him. He'll point you
in the right direction.



Seems like this is a common problem. It appears that the engine
manufacturers only order enough decals for a particular model year, probably
because they change the decals from year to year to identify a "new" model
year.

Seems like an after-market business opportunity exists unless there are some
complicated copyright issues. Decals are easily produced on a computer and
appropriate large printer designed for this application. We used to order
custom decals for the optical coating equipment we built and I saw how they
did it. Duck soup.

I got so tired of trying to find some that I peeled all mine off except
for the two facing the boat. I now run in "stealth" mode.

Good luck.

And they look better also, IMO, particularly the black Mercs.

I don't know about other places but here in FL the new trend is to get
motor covers painted to match the trim on the boat. Some turn out
well but others look a bit hokey.

If all else fails you might ask the people on
Alt.binaries.models.scale
They print decals all the time for plastic models.

Actually the decals are on the mercurypartsexpress.com site. I was on
there last night and saw them. You have to enter your serial number to
get to the area that has them. Mine were $135............

It's located under Service/support materials. Oh and the price for my
125 is not $135 but $103.
