Jarrett Bay 55 Transom Lettering

This 55-foot Sportfishing boat came to Off The Hook Yacht Services with a task to repair the transom lettering commissioned by the new owner. The highlighted project was re-lettering the faux teak finished transom. Faux teak finishes are increasingly popular for their durability, low maintenance, good looks, and longevity. Achieving a realistic faux teak finished transom takes the hand and eye of a skilled artist.

This transom had the lettering applied over a base of clear coat that covered the faux finish. The team had the ability to remove the existing lettering, level out the clear coat, and re-clear coat the faux finish before applying the new name. They had the ability to do this without destroying the existing faux finish. While this method might not work for every faux finished transom it worked in this situation. Contact the Off the Hook Yacht Services team for more information on faux teak work on your boat.

Chasn’ Tails, the 55 foot Jarrett Bay, was sold in November 2021 by Off the Hook Yachts Broker, Brendan Bennett in Wilmington, NC.
