They go for $49.95 You can check the quality of the others here (http://www.roostwear.com/cover.htm).I've wanted to do Southwind, but I have a minimum to meet. If I can hit that, it'll happen.

Nice but I have a hidden hitch so I will have to pass. The SW may be up for sale anyways.:( Everything has a price.

You have a good idea XClutchboy725.
I didn't get a Rogers sticker when I ordered my Rogers hitch cover.:D

I'll take one if you do it. I like the idea of a free sticker with it also. BTW, do you have the original decals that are on each side of the boat?

Hey Roostwear,
How about one with the Berkeley logo? I would go for one of those.

Berkeley is a registered trademark. I cannot legally reproduce it with a license from CP

Actually it's not. It's a commercially available font.

Thats funny shit.That font was hand drawn by my grandma and is or was tradmarked as dealing with fleetwood and the southwind name and went into litigation and we won so i can show you the court papers if ya like,but i have no problems with you making the product as long as you kick me one. :D

Southwind is no longer a business concern. Actually, Jem-craft Inc. is not. The word "Southwind" has different trademarks, depending upon the Goods and Services designation. Southwind is a current trademark in motorhomes. It is dead in recreational boats (http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=g1hnit.4.30)
You as an individual can reproduce Berkeley for your own use, just not for someone else. Trademark is an area that I take very seriously, and research extensively. People have asked me to reproduce trademarked items, and I have not, and will not do it. Why make a couple bucks on a sticker and face a hefty fine?

Im not into this bashing thing i gave you my # to call me and you did not. like i said i have no problem with you making this stuff but the font thing is all i was talking about.Feel free to make all the shirts and stickers you want as needed.When you want the real thing let me know and i will hook you up.We have all the originals and are going to make the older ones as well,we have 3 different shirts.The southwind name cannot be trademarked as you said it can only be used to name a style or type as that was hashed out in court.It was southwind by jen- craft (Don JENnings) the owner was dragged into court on that to and then it had to be changed to Jem craft.Mr roost im not trying to bash or tell you what you can and cant do so i look forward to talkijng to you at c3b and maybe we can do something together.I too have have a billet connection and i think i could get them done cheaper.Ill talk to you later.......Tim

I can get a better idea how many if anyone that's interested goes to the Hitch Cover page (http://www.roostwear.com/cover.htm) and selects Southwind from the list on the lower left.

What an eye. Then you probably noticed the designs aren't from the commercial font, they're digitized from the original literature. :rolleyes:
