Very cool paint job

This is the flying tiger "Tigger", skippered by Chris Winnard.

He seems to win a lot of races Dangerous_When_Striped!

He passed me going through the locks a couple of weeks ago.

With a pain-job like that you had better be darn good and win races..

Kind of like my daughter wanting fluorescent Green soccer shoes...I told here she isn't good enough to wear them...

It's a silk screen graphic. I've been aboard Tigger right after Chris got her ready to race. Mamma didn't like it, the boat that is. She said you can get one if ya wanna go sailing by yourself.

They are doing a lot with vinyl these days. Some boats (especially some of the go fasts) are going to what they call a "Wrap". The boat is entirely wrapped in vinyl with special graphics.
