Want Merchandise...maybe we can make it happen
 
The 1999 catalog is great but I am sure all merchandise is unavailable. We really want some of the merchandise esp. the towels. Any advise?:shakehead: The new website gives us nothing. We can go to a local person but would rather have the official stuff.

You are correct, none of those items are available anymore. It's a shame, there's some great items in there! Occasionally there's some Mariah branded merchandise that'll show up on ebay, but I've never seen any towels. You'd probably have to have those made locally, and if you do, send me a PM with the details!

Can we reproduce the old logo? I would love to do beach towles and can holders. If we can and anyone intersted let me know :D

That's a good question. I've thought of the club copyrighting the logo for ourselves, since technically the old logo was gold and the new Sea Fox logo is silver. That way we could produce merchandise. I'm not sure though if the simple color difference is distinguishing enough...

Sea Fox owns copyright to the Mariah script logo, no matter what color it is in. However, with that being said, people use copyrighted material everyday. Case in point, do a search on ebay sometime using a copyrighted brand name, and look for t-shirts, decals, watches, etc. You'll find tons of unauthorized merchandise.

There is talk of some MOC branded merchandise, but we'd need some interested people first. My first thought was koozie can holders.

Any easy soltuion is to make your own stuff with cafepress.com. If you need really high resolution scans let me know. I have some .eps files that are 100+mb.

I would definately be interested in obtaining merchandise. I think it's a great idea:wink_thumbup:

I think i would still be somewhat concerned about potential legal action from SeaFox, particularly since they are well aware of us.

I've thought about ordering things from the new Mariah website, but shipping is as much as the merchandise!

Warning on the current merchandise. I ordered a couple of hats and can sleeves and as stated above the shipping which they do not mention until after the order is processed is outragous. I still do not have the items 3 weeks later. Now I have to fight with my credit card to get my money back.

Gidday Greencunuck, Send this guy an email [email protected]
he handles the merchandise shipment as part of a company called PROforma PDS.
They handle all the merchandising as well as other things for Seafox.
Apparently the freight costs are at their highest in the US right now, anyone here who is involved in the trucking industry will probably vouch for that, so that cost has to be onforwarded to the consumer unfortunately.
Good luck and let us know how you get on.

Could you please email the files so I can have my embroidery department digitize the logo for me.([email protected]) I would like to make some t-shirts for the kids and myself. I just bought a 1998 180 4.3 last week. The script lettering that is sewn on the head rests is stained, so I'd like to stitch new ones. Thanks, Frank

Update: the merchandise from the Mariah Website never did make it but they happily refunded the money. It seems other than the shipping the border to Canada and shipping overseas has been a problem as well.

They made it right and that is all you can ask for.
