i agree with FD. You can do anything yourself, but there are people who do this for a living. Just like FD said, most of these guys will print out all your numbers on one sheet, and slap it on nice, straight and perfect. It is a lot cheaper than most people think. As far as your hull numbers go, there is nothing fancy about them, any decal guy will tell you it is a waste to go all fancy on your hull numbers, spend the $$$ on your boat name, as that is what you would want to stand out, you put the numbers on only to please transport canada and the police.
