    Good morning all, just picked up a new to me boat (Thanks Nate and Smittys) and I need to get a custom cover made and numbers for the side of the boat. Not sure how Nate went all year with no #’s or MN decal, but I’m sure I’ll get stopped on my first time out. I live in Hastings, anyone have any recommendations?

    Thanks,

    Jami

    Jami, You did’nt have it on the road last night did you, I saw a white Lund ,but come to think of it,it had Merc motors. The dealer should send in the Registration info to the state and you should receive it in a week or 2. If you want the fancy Letters and Numbers,Letter tech does a good job,but their kinda spendy. As for a cover,I know a lady here where I work that makes them, She does Quality work and I have had her make a couple modifications on mine.(And she’s from Hastings) If your interested shoot me an PM.

    Chappy, where is Letter Tech located?? You and I should meet up sometime and hit the river, I’m always looking for a fishing partner.

    Go to Lettertech.com I think, It’s in the outdoor news. Yeah, I also look for people sometimes, I work shifts once in a while and people sometimes are’nt available when I want to go.

    Got mine there too, they do a great job. Ask them if you can get the walleye expo show special that he runs in Feb.

    I would go with Letter Tech. I have a great customer cover. Boats in storage so I can’t look at the tag. Maplewood Marine has the name.

    Ritt you might check out that new place across from Dominos on Vermilion street.

    I stopped and got some prices for myself and was surprised at the prices.

    Sorry don’t know the name but they are in the old flower shop that used to be there.
