Title: Finally got my boat lettered
Post by: Saluki86 on June 04, 2013, 01:10:49 PM
So, it is finally official......presenting TATTLETALE.

My bro is 2 tour Vietnam vet.  He wrote a book about his experience and the book is titled TATTLETALE.  His first tour he was a radio guy in the infantry and reported enemy positions (ie.....a tattletale).   His second tour he did the same thing only from a helicopter.  So, in his honor......

I plan on christening it somehow, hopefully with embellished stories at life and sea plus plenty of grog from Kroger.  All suggestions welcome.

Mac, thanks for the guidance on the material for the letters.

Thanks Kickingbug.

I am not really sure.  The PO said it was on it when he bought it back in 2009(?) in FL.  It looks (to me) like it is original.  Anyone know if that was a factory option for the 1980 model?
