I see tribal, I see flames, I see checkers. All need to be outlined with a shade of pink.

You can NEVER go wrong with Flourescents, all the heh heh HOT glowing colors you can possibly put on any boat. Think of all the new friends you'll make!!!!
Totally kidding of course but take a look at some of the boat show pics that are posted on some of the sites and all you see are tribals and flames, and combo's of both, i see some of the "classic" looks coming back, simple stripes, and fades, and gulp, checkers, hey my boat has checkers and it's only 9yrs old, trends change quickly.
Good Luck you'll never know what you might get asking this group for advice :D :D

party theme graphiti ,along with all your party peeps names, masked out so when it's done all the graphiti is flame shaped.
I was gonna do my last jet like that, black base, blue graphiti, with ghost lettering.
call me crazy I think it would look cool.

I suggest you go classy with a timeless design. You don't want your graphics to "date" your boat if you plan on keeping it for a while. Plus, it's a Lavey, it deserves class. :D

I would say to stay away from flames or tribal and go with something that will follow the lines of the boat. I would do some metal flake but keep it tastefull. T think my next boat will be done with a stars ans stripes theme

Pick something not trendy, no wild colors or it will be dated in a few years......

No offense to anyone, but please don't do blue flames:yuk: That is unless you like them;)
I agree with most try to flow with the lines of the boat and classic fades, some metal flake would be nice, but not a lot.

boat floating your colors are what i was thinking about using looks great.the lavey deck boat is a little different so it only needs side graphics nothing that rolls over the top of the sponson.

There are pictures of a Lavey deck in the image center, I saw them the other day. I am out in Havasu on dial-up, or I would find them and post them.
