Peregrine	Posted - 06/11/2019 : 14:57:10 Many years ago a member was selling a replacement raised plastic logo here but he seems to have moved on. I have since kicked and broken mine getting in and out of the boat. There is a sign shop near me that can make stick on vinyl graphics and I think that is the way to go. Nothing to break. I am just trying to find a clean logo to scan and size for them to work from. Does anyone have a link or a file of it? Thanks.

Tomas Kruska	Posted - 10/04/2019 : 00:36:17 In the past, I've created an vector format of the modern logo type. Download the HIN plate with the logo converted to lines/vectors http://www.kruska.cz/C25_High_Anxiety/logo/catalina_yachts_logo.svg
Buzz Maring	Posted - 09/27/2019 : 19:22:11 I stumbled on this photo tonight. I know we haven't talked about this since the beginning of the summer, but maybe this photo will do someone some good. As I recall, the bottom logo was made from a tracing of the C-25 logo on a boat, and the top version is how it looked after the vinyl shop cleaned it up a bit ...
GaryB	Posted - 07/23/2019 : 20:34:45 I ran across this way of making replacement logo's. https://stingysailor.com/2015/06/06/how-to-reproduce-classic-brand-emblems-2/
panhead1948	Posted - 07/19/2019 : 10:10:42 I got Catalina 250 logos from Catalina Direct and cut off the zero
islander	Posted - 07/18/2019 : 03:49:56 Lee, Just flip the 2 and the 5.
Lee Panza	Posted - 07/17/2019 : 20:08:08 Wow! But, hey; could you make that into 'Catalina 29'? Just in case I want to impress someone...
SKS	Posted - 06/25/2019 : 06:32:11 If you want to save some time, feel free to shamelessly plagiarize the JPEG that I developed. You can download it from this site , or I can send you the original file in native format. I can also send you a copy of my order to DIY Lettering. As always, my free advice comes with a double your money back guarantee. quote: Originally posted by Peregrine Nice Steven. I will be working on mine for awhile. I like the "Catalina" Buzz sent me but on close inspection it is pretty rough. Will probably draw over it to get the rough edges out and am still not satisfied I have found the right "25". But seeing yours I am more convinced a vinyl stick on is the right way to go.
Voyager	Posted - 06/24/2019 : 21:02:20 SKS and TCurran both have the same �25� font that�s the original on Passage. My starboard side logo is largely gone except for the 25, and the port side is largely intact except for the underline following the final �a�. So they have the original fonts as shown. John, the actual plastic molding also was pretty rough. If you clean it up it will look more aesthetically pleasing however it will not reflect the original product. Not passing judgment just letting you know.

islander	Posted - 06/18/2019 : 05:53:39 John, I use Flickr. It gives you 12 different sizes of a photo stored there to choose from. So as not to blow out this forum I usually choose Medium (640x480) Simply pick your size, Right click on the photo,Click Copy image address and insert it in the forum. These are the other choices. Photo / All sizes Sizes Square 75 (75 x 75) Square 150 (150 x 150) Thumbnail (100 x 75) Small 240 (240 x 180) Small 320 (320 x 240) Medium 500 (500 x 375) Medium 640 (640 x 480) Medium 800 (800 x 600) Large 1024 (1024 x 768) Large 1600 (1600 x 1200) Large 2048 (2048 x 1536) Original (4320 x 3240)

dasreboot	Posted - 06/18/2019 : 04:11:08 there is a vinyl place in the discount section of the members area
Peregrine	Posted - 06/17/2019 : 14:00:30 Got rid of the big photo so the thread might be easier to read. This is all looking good. I didn't realize how far from the "Catalina" the "25" was. Photo of the real "25" might help. More than glad to share once I've got together. Unfortunately bunch of rain coming in then jury duty so not sure when I can get back out. What photo sharing app or web sites is everyone using?

TCurran	Posted - 06/15/2019 : 04:44:15 John, will this do?
Voyager	Posted - 06/14/2019 : 22:38:48 Yeah, sorry for the snide remark. I did get my microscope out to read the comments. Meanwhile I have an original plastic �25� on Passage. Not sure when the Catalina vanished. I can take a high res close up photo and put it out on my photo sharing app. I also used to have a 1964 Pontiac Catalina with a dual four barrel carburetor and a 442 cu in engine. You can still find high resolution photos of that logo. I like the old school look of that thing. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1966-Pontiac-Catalina-Emblem-Trim-Badge-Decal-Metal-Nameplate-Rare-Vintage-Old-/181716998870
RichardG	Posted - 06/14/2019 : 17:03:24 John - after you get the whole thing scanned, could you make that available on this site? My logos, and I'm guessing many of our members' logos, are in bad shape. I think Catalina Direct has a logo for sale, but I never considered it because it's not the original script. Thanks.
Peregrine	Posted - 06/14/2019 : 09:10:49 quote: Originally posted by islander John, I believe he is poking fun at the large photo now has made the print on this topic microscopic. Oh. Sorry the picture is so big but it was the only one I found of the original script.

Voyager	Posted - 06/13/2019 : 19:37:27 �� Oh, no problem John, we all love reading the fine print. Good practice for reading software license agreements ��
Peregrine	Posted - 06/13/2019 : 15:20:58 quote: Originally posted by GaryB I have the 25 from my 89. I saw it in a drawer on the boat on Tuesday. If needed I could hold it up next the word Catalina which is still attached to the boat along with a ruler if that is any help. I also "might" still have the whole plastic logo on the other side of the boat. I can check on both next time I go down to the boat. That's great. Just a photo of either or both would help. I could photoshop it in.
