I am attempting to convert the logo to a vector format for you using Flash ( which has a very very good trace, if it works I'll post it.

well it worked, the edges are a might jaggy and I may fix it (anyone know what that typeface it is?), but it should work pretty well. The file is pretty big, so am disinclined to post it, if'in you want, I can send it to you, just let me know your addy.

ARTCAT81. ok one more question (from me) how large are you wanting it to be?
Fripp21: Quite big, the name/text "SERENITY" would be approximately 0.7-1 meter in length.

THEONETRUEBIX. Waiting and format...
Fripp21: I can wait. The boat will go to the water late April. I'll have a few months for this project. I would love all formats, especially photoshop with the elements in layers etc. I have a friend working in the advertisment business. He will help me and he also have contact with printers etc.

DARTHVEGAS. Vectro format?
Fripp21: I am not sure how to use it, but sure I'll take it.

I'd be VERY interested in your Flash rendition (.fla format of course). BTW, the closest free font that sort of matches the "Serenity" string is Papyrus. This has been discussed in other threads. I downloaded it from somewhere (can't remember where) and it is very reasonably accurate. The best part is I have the ability to "explode" TTF text strings into their constituent components and peform further editing to get it "just right".

A vector version of the Serenity logo has now become my mission!

ok, here is the simplified version of the logo I currently make

I have a few more questions for you
1. what color is your boat?
2. saltwater or fresh or both?

you want a rust tone vinyl correct? my vinyl source is working on getting a rust toned vinyl (or at least teh pricing on it for me )

2. saltwater or fresh or both?

Fripp21:
1. The hull is grey. Light, light grey, bordeline white ("off-white" is the name?)

2. Saltwater. You do off-shore racing as well as racing on "olympic courses" with this one. Lots of fun.

Thanks for all the help and enthusiasm.

Feels like... a family.

Hi.

I will probably have one one each side of the boat/hull.

I could have it (one name/logo) on the stern, but I think it will be much nicer on the sides of the boat.

Keep flyin', and sailin'
