Sail Number Application - 6/29/2008 3:45:38 PM

Status: offline 		I am finally ready to put numbers on my Nirvana's jib but cannot locate the spinnaker tape at West Marine as Steve Lang recommends. I really don't want to put permanent ink on the sail using a Sharpie pen or the like.

Does anyone know of a source where I can get something similar to the spinnaker tape that Steve recommends? And, should I spray it with some sort of decal bonder after the numbers are placed?

Thanks.

Status: offline 		My Nirvana was sent with a sheet of stick-on number decals, large and small. The large were almost 3" high and in the correct font and I used them. I think that you could find some black stick on number decals in WalMart or Lowes that would work. They may not be an exact match for Arial font, but, they're close.

Stick on numbers can inhibit the sails from taking shape.
