It’s Down To Two. Obsessing Over Type or Stink
If I am gonna have to go through this mental hell, so are you. Thats the price you pay for this dumb entertainment. And so, today is the final day of hell. Either way I am moving on. WHAT? Well late yesterday we had three folks chime in that they liked the farting skunk. Or spraying skunk. I had thought , well, I am gonna stay with the type. STINKY on the transom. BUT, ugh. Something is off about it, is it too small on the transom? To much color? Too many Stinkys? So the skunk is a fun punctuation. But the type is done! And the Skunk would require a redo, which ait that bad. Could be fun to do. Stinky is still being gone through to go swimming. So I have a day to decide. SO TODAY! YOU VOTE.
TYPE, LETTERING

Lettering

Stinky Spray!
OR THE SKUNK? No other ideas. It’s down to two. And no voter fraud, no hanging Chads, unless Chad chimes in, then there will be one Chad.
Also remember, the type is on the sides.
The Best Transom Award goes to the Skunk!
Since Stinky is already on the side, I vote for the skunk with flatulence.
Just not diggin’ that skunk. The cute skunk, yes – this mean looking one, no.
Skunk
Stink with the VERBIAGE
How about a write in candidate? I vote for a cow, since you’re milking this story for all it’s worth!
That is one mean looking rocket powered skunk stink – all in on scaring your racing competition.
Start the countdown to liftoff.
Image over verbiage, even if the skunk looks mean.
Gotta go with the skunk as you have Stinky already on the sides.
skunk with racing goggles
Just like this last few days. It’s Skunked
Definitely the skunk!
It’s your boat – You Decide!
This hole thing stinks, I and all 28 of my over 18 family members cast votes for Wayne’s cow!
Cow 29 votes!!!
I do not want to cause a stink, but the skunk bit just plain stinks. And since the word Stinky is on the sides about the size of two interstate billboards, on the transom should just be…
Your home port and date of build.
Simple. Classy.
Guys love wood boats, they will holler with laughter at every boat show you take stinky too; you will win every peoples choice with the 1937 Skunk transom; or the judges will dock you a point for the transom not being original
Here is a more sneaky Stink
The SNEAKY skunk for the win! He’s mischievous instead of angry, like you, Matt.
To clarify, I meant that you’re mischievous, Matt. Not angry! And that’s what brings us back every day.
I definitely think that the skunk, while fun, does a disservice to the boat. The fact that the boat already has the name Stinky on both sides, displaying it again on the transom, is a bit much. There are great reasons for both choices, and I know it is not an option, but I have to agree with Briant on this one…home port and date of build. It is classy, and with all the upgrades made to the boat, Stinky is now classy boat!
Agree with Dan – he said it well!
The short version, I abstain from this vote!
A sailor and artist that follows you daily.
Ask Mr. B. I’ll join with him in the decision making. S
Winner Winner Skunkie Dinner!
Lettering looks great-it’s done! Skunk a bit too gimmicky for a Classic!
Skunk might be good on sides?
Skunk. w/ mean look .Its a race boat, its not supposed to be cute .Brocks idea of racing goggles is even better. Like the old Plymouth Road Runners, the bird was holding a racing helmet
I vote for racing goggled skunk, minus flatulence. Build year offset, lower right of centered art.
OK, I know I am not supposed to do this, but I vote Mr. B Humping the pillow.
Your readers will get it, but no one else.
No Skunk
My vote is for the skunk… despite the fact he is being unjustly attributed with the stink given the original source were rats!
“Least is most”, the skunk says it all and it will get more attention, especially with the kids. Don’t over think it.
I vote text version!
