Boat Name Graphic Design

[JMWarren]

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for some graphic design help here.

I've decided to change the name on my boat, we've settled on Phoenix.

I've got 51" by 23" to place the name and was thinking of encorperating the Formula "Thunderbird" logo into the name, likely taking the round corners of the wing tips and making them sharper so the thunderbird looks more like a phoenix.

If anyone wants to fool around in Illustrator I'd appreciate it. I can tweak a design to make things work but don't have the creativity that some do when it comes to this sort of thing.

I've always seen you guys turn out amazing designs.

Thanks in Advance!

Bad luck to change the name of a boat.

Bad juju to change the name of a boat.

There's a pretty specific de-naming and re-naming ceremony that will be followed. I'm not really superstitious but can't resist anything involving champagne.

Renaming a boat is bad luck. But, you do realize, Phoenix: a mythical bird that is born out of the ashes (fire) of its predecessor.
Fire & water don't play well together. You're REALLY tempting fate.

If you change the boat name, I'm going to set it on fire.

Being superstitious, I suggest you don't change the name of the boat.

I suggest something in the same vein as this..

Perhaps: Superstitious Much?

Its also bad luck to bring women aboard a boat.

My sister and her husband recently moved onto a 43' sailboat. They changed the name of the boat and have a woman living aboard.

My Mom and her husband also lived aboard a 43' Pan Oceanic for over 12 years. They changed the boat's name when they bought it... never had any bad luck.

Yep, that Original Contract and Change Order are the best names ever. Ain't it the truth.
