Anybody with Whaler experience and any kind of a sharp eye can spot the knock-offs immediately (like this whaler perfectionist!). Unfortunately I have seen way too many of them, and one thing is for sure - they are a dead giveaway the boat has been worked on/restored by someone who doesn't know what they are doing. or is a cheapskate. Be careful buying a used Whaler with knock-off decals. It tells you about the rest of the work, or at least it was done by someone who was not experienced with Whalers.

Janis - a related question - Do you guys reproduce the red plastic floor plate on the gas tank cover of the 25 Outrage and Revenge models? It seems to be about 1/8" thick plastic and screws into a 3 x 5 recess in the floor, and has a diagram of the non-skid pattern on it showing where to not drill. Mine is worn out and I need a new one.

Do you also reproduce the two different stick-on decals for the floor, one for the side covers, and one for the gas tank covers of the smaller Outrages?
