I usually like to adorn my fishing vessel with Decals of the products I use. Lately I have been sending e-mails out to the company's and asking for some. They have been coming in like crazy. So far I have received some from Zoom, Wright and McGill, Lazer Sharp, and Eagle Claw. I still have a few more to come in that I am aware of. The only problem I have is that the way the plastic is on my kayak doesn't allow for me to apply them. Which is a bummer. Just throwing this out there for you guys that might want to add some "flare" to your boat.

They make paint for plastics. I just put in an order for CGKF vinyl cut stickers.

I just put in a good order for a decals through hook1, I looked up how to apply them to kayaks,looks like you have to sand down the spot you want the decal at with 150gt sandpaper, rub it down with rubbing alchohol, heat it up with a torch and apply the decal. Post up pics of your boat!

I don't know how the texture on that yak is, but with mine, there is is toto molded so there a a lot of little bumps on the yak that make it hard for decals to stick, that is why you have to sand them down first.
