    I don't know where you are located, but when we replaced the decals on our 92 Excel before sale, we called Midwest CC (distribution center) and ordered direct from them. I'd find the closest CC dist. center to you and call them up. We had ours 2 days after ordering them and I think they cost 50 bucks total. Using soapy water to put them on makes it a cinch. PM me if you need some more info.

      if the boat is original with the three color stripes they were masked off the letters and painted the stripes side of the boat. Correct Craft did this from early seventies to 1984 on their skiboats. Best way i have found to mask off the letters is mark the letters after you strip the paint off the side of the boat, then using clear contact paper trace and cut out the lettering then peel the excess off and leave the letters for masking, spray your stripes then peel off the remaining masking and you have your side graphics.

        It is original, and your right. I was Just thinking about having it repainted and put stick on lettering back! Thanks for the good info on how to do it the original way.
