I had my boat done up in Ringwood N.J and it is not cheap. I think it cost me about $250.00 installed. If you install it your self you can save some money slt

I had mine done at
JIM'SIGNS Inc.
1400 Rahway Avenue
Avenel, New Jersey  07001
732 381-8700
or Email dave@jimsigns.com
 I gave them the artwork and they printed it on vinyl. Each side was only about $100. They did a nice job.

I'm pretty certain anyone with two arms, two eyes and half a brian can install a decal. 5hrug

I've done four different boats including an old friends 28' topaz.
Prep the surface by removing any debris or wax. Spray the area with a soapy water mixture. Slap the decal on. With the soapy water on, it allows you to move the decal around until its level. When you purchase a decal, they should include a small plastic putty knife. You run the edge of this knife across the decal, from inside out, pushing the soapy water mixture out from underneath the decal. let it settle for a few hours, remove the backing and viola!

Most times when ordered they come with do-it-yourself instructions.

I did a post a while back when I lettered my boat, check it out, the job is easy, and you can custom design it on line and have it shipped to the house at amazingly cheap prices.http://njsaltwaterfisherman.com/forums/index.php?topic=5837.0 (http://njsaltwaterfisherman.com/forums/index.php?topic=5837.0) <'((((><
