Ahoy, Bugsy.
I have seen the chrome plated brass Whaler logos on Ebay. I have no idea how they would last because I never saw one on a Whaler. I wonder if Whaler ever used them.
I haven't seen brass plated logos, I think you might have meant chrome plated brass.

I do not think they were ever used. I heard that they were going to be but never were.
I found one at a flea market for 5 bucks. It is now garage decor.
It looks pretty sweet !
Bbay for sure will have them.

I bought two of those from an eBay vendor. They are BIG about 15 inches long and heavy. I don't think Whaler ever used them on a boat. Don't think they would be as durable as the plastic decals. Mine are wall hangers. Jim

I saw them on the cabin of a frontier. He might have bought them on e-bay as well....who knows.

There is a nice picture of a transom mounted emblem on page 41 of Cetacea. Maybe ask Rex where he got it.

Say, Bugsy.
Have you looked at the ones on Ebay? Are they what you mean? If not, where can we see what you mean?

Well, they are chrome plated, not brass plated. So they wont be goldish.
They wouldn't be too heavy for a Montauk, but, well, I think they wouldn't look right.
If I got some for Christmas, I might put them on my trailer or on the wall of my shop.
