    I have to get some opioins. My boat is getting repainted due to getting caught in the storm the week of the 4th. My concern is per the shop who is doing the work. Said that the decals for a 2005 Lund can be hard to work with because they become brittle over time. They basically dont make them new anymore.
    My question to you guys. Would you consider putting new decals 2012 on a 2005 Lund Mr.pike boat??
    My concerns:
    Would it hurt the potential resale of the boat?
    Would it drive you away, because its not “period correct”.

    I have no plans of selling the boat anytime soon. Unless I can get the FW to bite on a new Skeeter!!

    Any input would be appreciated!

    I’d put on the 2012 decals without thinking about it twice. I can’t imagine it hurting the resale price of your rig when you decide to sell.

    Two votes for the 2012 decals.

    If I remember right I think Blue Fleck can make up the decals that would match the original ones.

    Th only reason that I can see for wanting the original decals is to conceal the fact that it was worked on. Honesty is the best policy, plus you get a better looking boat.

    You can get new ones made at a custom decal shop. Take a picture, get measurements of height width and spacing, and what color and they should be able to make them.

    Is it a fishing boat or something pretty sitting in the garage?? Do whatever makes you happy.
