- Made in Australia
How it works
Three simple steps from idea to stickers on the boat.
Choose a name
Scroll the list or type to find one. Each name is written so it still looks clear as vinyl letters.
Design as sticker
Tap the button on a name. Pick the font, colour and size in the designer — you will see a live preview.
We cut a matching pair
You get two identical vinyl-cut names, ready to apply, shipped Australia-wide.
These Aussie boat names pull from slang, wildlife and coastal weather — original ideas for tinnies, cruisers and family boats, not a scraped dump. Apostrophes are fine in vinyl if the font stays simple.
