Is there anyplace to get pacemaker emblems? One of mine is corroding away to the point that the "ER" on the end has fallen off.

Rich - many of us have the same problem - Have not found any where to get them - One suggestion was to have some made up and sell them here - don't know if anyone has taken the ball and run with it - Sometimes you can find them on ebay - but the ones I have seen are not much better than the ones I have -

I might look into reproducing them. Just wondering if anyone has done it yet. I am looking for the emblem with the red and blue crest under "PACEMAKER", but is there a want for the longer "PACEMAKER" on the blue background as well?

I have been looking for these for 2 years now. I have nothing that says Pacemaker and found them on e-bay but went for $200! I have considered vinyl lettering but am still hoping to find the original plates.

I am thinking of drawing the plates in CAD and then seeing what it would cost to CNC new plates. I am not sure when I will be able to do this (work schedule/ life) but if you are willing to part with one on a tempory basis so I can draw it you'll be first on my list when they are available.

Rich -
I have been looking into this also and have found several custom emblem manufacturers that make emblems - for cars and such - Problem is that they need a good sample to work from - many include the art work in there cost - One issue is the minimum order that I found was 300 pieces, in our case that means 150 boats two emblems per boat. I would want a committment on them before I ordered them. One emblem maker had chrome over brass with painted areas. Might want to do a yahoo or google on custom emblems before you start.
