Default Boat Name Vinyl Placement

Does anyone have pics of their boat names and where they are placed? I wanted to do a nice arch on the back of the boat with the name, but I feel the gas filler would interfere. There is about 40" of space to the left of it that would work with a straight line name, but I wanted to get ideas first. 95 Davanti 225.

    If it's any help, when I was doing my Mariah I lightly drew my idea on with pencil. It wiped right off with glass cleaner.

    Is the snap in carpet standard on the back of the z302's? It sure fixes the slip hazard.

    Yeah but mine didn't have some of the challenges that yours has.
    When it's on the water you're typically looking more down at it, so the ladder wasn't as in the way as it seems from this perspective.
