In my other life I make trophies. Mainly sailing trophies. But occasionally I get to make pretty fancy striped power boats. Power Boat Trophies with Fancy Engraving The trickiest bit was duplicating their intricate club logo on the engraver. We used stainless steel like material rather than have the brass look. More in keeping with high powered engines. The stripes on the hull are all from natural colour Australian timbers. In fact all the woods used are their natural colours. We don't use wood dyes of any sort. ( Apart from when we do! But that's not very often.)
