Well, this discussion has taken up an inordinate amount of my time - Not that I am complaining, I am learning much more than I already knew about wraps. After watching several youtube videos, (How to repair) I now think a lot of the cars I thought were painted are wrapped. There are some little bits on my boat that have little vinyl repairs that are very hard to find.

Karl, that's exactly my concern...I would like to have seen photos of that! Thanks

They guy who has a wrap here did hit the dock last year and put a pretty large rip in it. Not repairable. He had that side replaced this spring. Karl Erickson SeaBatical C&C 34 Lake Michigan The reviews I have seen on YouTube for cruising boats seem positive. Lifespan 10+ years, straight forward patch and repair and peel off removal.
Being a traditionalist, I had been hesitant to consider wraps but am digging deeper as the pros seem to outweigh the cons, esp here in N. Idaho where painters and working yards are sparce but there are vehicle wrappers who have some boat wrapping experience. (Fred don't judge us, it's a BIG lake).
Still weighing options as we are a couple of years (unless an option becomes obvious)

Those Wraps are intriguing, does anyone know what is involved in removing them?

A dock neighbor had just 1973 C$C 33 wrapped last year. Half the cost and it looks awesome. His name and the C&C stripe was part of it. Karl Erickson Another random idea....
Could you consider a vinyl wrap?
Firefly has the Red paint job from 1977ish and is umm showing her age. So while looking at painting we also started looking at options. The vinyl wrap is about half the paint cost and decent life span and repairable.
For us, either is a couple of years off but does the group have any input or experience?
