    Hi all, been awhile since my last post, but hoping to get some help finding replacement carpeting for my 2006 205 Sport.

    Boat graphics

    Sooo as time passes by, I dislike the graphics more and more on the side of my boat. Probably because I have seen some pretty awesome looking graphics. My problem is I cannot find a place that designs and sells graphics. I have googled it and only turn up thousands of boat lettering places...

    So here's a question for you guys... (Venting)

    Why is it that 99% of all Corvette owners drive their car like they are in a no wake zone with a 50 foot yacht? I say 99% because once in a blue moon I will catch a lunitic behind the wheel, but its very rare, and its probably not his/hers. I understand its a midlife crisis car and they aren't...
