I have searched all over for an answer with no(NO) results. I can't find anything in Hobie or Murray catalogs. I can't find anything decent on Ebay. I am frustrated by this. :|
I am restoring a 1980 Hobie 16 and the decorative stripes on the hulls are in bad shape. Please somebody give me a clue or two on how to proceed. Pin stripe tape? Paint over the old stripes? Thanks a bunch, rip :)

You can get 3/16" silver stripes through your nearest dealer. Unfortunately, we don't have stripe decals that will match older models.

Try vinyl lettering companys, most also sell a variety of pin stripe material.

Or just have them make what you want. Vinyl is dirt cheap.

Thanks Guys, I have an email in to a vinyl company that appears to sell bulk vinyl for reasonable price, and I will call Strictly Sail in Cincinnati as soon as 9 am gets here! :D
