Member Personal Page Project Albums Posts: 442 Comments: 2 Joined: 07/21/13	To finish off my Red Ritchie Explorer Repair project I had Garzon Studios create a reproduction decal from a picture of an original E. S. Ritchie & Sons decal. The cost was $30 + $5.00 for each additional copy. Not cheap but the quality of the decal is outstanding: http://www.whalercentral.com/userphot...to_id=1888 http://www.whalercentral.com/userphot...to_id=1887 Garzon has the proofs and can create extra copies for anyone interested.

I also had them do a 50hp decal for my outboard a few years ago. Still looks new: http://www.whalercentral.com/userphot...to_id=1785 1976 Sport 15 w/ 2005 50hp Nissan 2 stroke

That's great to know. How much did it cost? Given the compass has been discontinued for 30 years I didn't even think to call them.

Should I possibly contact Ritchie , as I only live about a half hour from Pembroke? Bill K. 1984 Super Sport 11
