I'm fortunate that two of my fellow Massabesic Yacht Club sailors purchased and built Tippecanoe T27s over the off-season. So we have a fleet to race!
That being said, we need a way to distinguish our boats and what better way than by sail numbers.
I printed out a catalog picture from a website that sells real sail numbers and using MS Paint, sized the picture so the numbers were about 2" high.
I cut these out using a sharp blade, and traced these onto the back of Contender Insignia sailcloth. This is paper backed with adhesive. These were then put onto the sail.
I like the way they turned out, and made a set for each of my friends too... Dave with hull #888 and Wally with hull # 872.
I can't wait for our first race!
