    For Boat Owners

    Custom Boat Name Badges and Emblems

    A boat name deserves better than vinyl letters. Dimensional chrome or gold lettering reads like real boat lettering, for the transom, the hull, the cabin and the dock box.

    Raised letters that catch the light instead of flat printed film.

    Built for outdoor use

    Weather-resistant finishes suited to life outside.

    A boat name, hailing port, or a complete emblem badge.

    Better than vinyl letters

    Vinyl lettering is flat and eventually fades or lifts. A dimensional badge sits proud of the surface and gives your boat name the look of finished, custom lettering.

    Every badge is handmade in our workshop through a 7-step production process.

    Where boat owners use them

    • Boat name badges for the transom and hull.
    • Hailing-port text beneath the name.
    • Emblem logos for the cabin, console and dock box.
    • Matching badges for yacht club and marina fleets.
    • Team names and logos for fishing team boats.

    Individual letters or a full badge

    Order your boat name as one badge, or design letters and words separately for a wider spread across the transom. Have a club burgee or team logo? Upload it in the Photo and Logo builder.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are the badges durable outdoors?

    Our finishes are weather-resistant and suited to outdoor use. They are not marine-certified, so we recommend mounting them above the waterline and checking them periodically like any other exterior fitting.

    What letter sizes can I get?

    Sizes are selected in the designer, which shows every available option and its price. For a long boat name across a transom, you can order the name in sections.

    Can I apply them to fiberglass?

    Yes. Apply to a flat, clean, dry fiberglass surface. Remove wax and residue with rubbing alcohol, let it dry fully, and press firmly. Avoid heavily curved or textured areas.

    Can I remove or replace a badge later?

    Yes. Warm the badge gently, slide fishing line behind it to cut through the adhesive, then remove any residue with an adhesive remover.
