stingray580 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 looks great rob, what about an outline of mast and squaretop mainsail behind the insignia?? such that we are advertising that we are an upto date class with a current sailplan??

mitchlb44 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Loving the work Rob! I've got one of the stingray 5.5 stickers on my fridge!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchlb44 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 speaking of which - would you be able to do some stingraycatamaran.com stickers in the same format? - send Rex the bill! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NixonJr Posted February 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 how does this look? [ATTACH]182[/ATTACH] yer i can do some stingraycatamaran.com stickers do you want them in the same font as the stingray 5.5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchlb44 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 That would be great Robbie! I think that font may as well be the one! Did you copy that off Todd's boat? Regarding the round sticker - try making the main window a little bigger, and maybe a window in the jib as well... see how it looks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowling Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 The idea is great guys - mark me down for a couple when they are done. Just need to adjust the proportions a bit. At the moment the boat looks odd because the boat to mast height ratio is wrong and the foot to head ratio is way out too. It looks abit like a caricature at the moment. The boat to mast ratio would be 5.5 to 9 being about 1.6 and foot to head would be 1 to 2.2 being 2.2. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingray580 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 looks good rob!! awesome job, ill have a couple also 2 for the boat, 3 for the cars, can we get large ones for the sailbox lid????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loose Change Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 When was the name changed to "Stingray 5.5"? As far as I'm aware it's a Stingray and that should be enough, after all it's not as if there is a Stingray 4.3 or 5.8, there is only one Stingray.

mitchlb44 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hi Loose - good to hear from you. The name hasn't been changed! We have simply added the boats length to the sticker! I suppose there are a lot of various 'stingrays' out there that are not the sailing catamaran... power boats, tools, etc - i guess the 5.5 helps to create a point of difference! I wasn't around then but it appears that 10-15 years ago there was a bit of push on the 5.5 as there are a few boats, boom, trailers etc that have '5.5' on them somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowling Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 I don't know the exact history of the name but I have two stickers "Stingray 5.5" on my boat. I got them from Steve Adams on behalf of the Class Association in 2001, but I think they originated from the 90's. Maybe someone from SA can elaborate?

stingray527 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Looks good Rob especially as you made sure that that the image is pointing the right way unlike the logo on Mitch's sail. LOL You really must speak to Goodalls Mitch. LOL. I'm with the rest of the guys Rob. I'll take a couple and I like Brians suggestion of a big one for the sail box.

mitchlb44 Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Now Mark - It was done for a perfectly valid reason! As it was a trial sail that didn't fit in the rules (at the time) I asked for the insignia to be placed backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
