OH Fred, you were talking about changing the entire graphic?!!?

Decals have already been made and given out. A banner was built. This is going to be a tough call. Maybe John McKnight can chime in.

No Way. If the things have already been made it's obviously pointless. Maybe a future T-shirt.

I don't know that the logo on the T-shirts would necessarily have to be the same as on the banner and decals. I think we could explore other suggestions. The obvious advantage in using Wilder's design is that it is done and ready to go.

Well let me know if you would like me to further develop this option. I think it would make a pretty cool T-shirt. I've attached the same design but with some color added. (all lines are rough, This is just a quick concept sketch, for discussion). Let me know what you think. Maybe we can send it to CABB members for comments? The T-shirt I see as white. I don't know who could print it. Eric, does your sister's co. do screen printing? Robi, Do you?, or do you have a source? I know there are a bunch of companies out there that do it so finding a source is not a major issue.

Let me know your opinions, good or bad!

How about a square top sail on that boat! LOL j/k

I like the sketch, I am not diggin the red on blue though. It kinda throws it off and hard to read. I like your first design with the CABB to the top left of the cirlce.

I do not do t-shirt, and I do not have a source either. John told me he has a good friend in the T shirt business, so I dont think it would be hard to do either. The design is pretty simple too, which is a very good thing. LESS IS MORE! always good in graphic design.

It would be simple to do in decals as well. But that would have to be for maybe next year. I know John may stiull have a few CABB decals laying around.

Maybe intergrating both designs into one? hmm, ill see what I can whip up and see what it looks like.

We already have a great t-shirt guy.., John Sherry. He is a cat guy, and is the one that does all the shirts for Tradewinds, Steeplechase, etc. He is also the guy that designed the "I'd rather be sailing" t shirt where the guy is trapped out on a car flying its wheels.

The colors came about from the colors of the water (blue) and the race flags or buoys(orange/red). They do vibrate a little together. I see your point. Also, more colors means more screens, and likely more money. It depends on the process used.

I also think that around the circle we could write "Catamaran Association of Biscayne Bay" and even maybe geographical coordinates.

Sure, we could combine ideas. This would make it relate more to the stickers and banners. It would make sense.

So... lets wait for more opinions on the design to move forward.

Members...Chime In!!!

PS. John better have some extra stickers left over! I just sent in my membership dues!

Hi guys; I like Fred's design for a shirt; the "CABB" acronym by itslef does not say much.

Thanks / Rafael

From what John McKnight has already said on this thread and what he has e-mailed to me, he wants to encourage any and all ideas for a logo and for a shirt design for CABB. This is separate and apart from the decals that have already been made.

The logo and the shirt design may or may not include the graphic that Robi already came up with.

So feel free to bring out all your creativity and suggest ideas, just as Fred has done. John McKnight won't be back on line until next week; but when he returns, he will be very happy if he sees lots of ideas here.

I'll come up with a couple of alternatives (as time permits), since it doesn't look like I'll be getting my jib for this weekend's race
