Thank you again GBR716.

This will save me trying to get the required font and size (the easy bit) matched-up with a printer/vinyl cutter who may not already know what is required.

As soon as my registration number comes through I will order the numbers and GBR sail letters .

Stay safe,

Bob.

Thanks GBR716.

I am getting a boat "sorted" and have applied for a registration number.

All I need to find now is a good supplier of pre-cut letters and numbers to the correct spec.

Do you have a supplier that you can recommend or use that these can be bought from?

Many thanks - all of the links you have supplied have been very helpful and interesting.

Bob.👍

Sail numbers are self adhesive vinyl and are easy to apply. Some do use ink marker pens and stencil them on but they don't look as good. There is guidance to correct number positions here:

Thanks GBR716.

I will see if he (Mike Weston) sells the numbers and find out if they are iron-on or self adhesive.

Many thanks,

Bob.

Thanks - that is (almost) all the info I need get started.

Having gained a registration number - where do you recommend buying suitable numbers and how do you apply them to the sails?

I am guessing that any of the optional sail sets could be bought from third party suppliers with these numbers already screen printed on?

Bob.

Thanks GBR716.

Those are very helpful links.

How do you register the yacht and get your own GBR sail numbers for your DF95 ?

Many thanks for your advice,

Bob.
