Hello everyone. I own a 1981 Mariner 180. I have completely gone through it and replaced the deck and am currently finishing up the new transom. When purchased it was missing one of the original plastic Starcraft emblems on the side. I would like to find one to replace it. If anyone could help me locate one it would be much appreciated. Here are some pics

DIY a set from a good 1 you can use to make a mold or 3d printer
Find a local w 3d printer
Find a derelict hull and buy it for the emblems, but derelict hulls rarely have good emblems
Ebay/craigs if you are 1 in a milion lucky to find factory originals in good shape
Theres someone selling SC emblems on ebay out of stainless, but the font is completely wrong as is the scale, so they dont 'look' right.
Use a vinyl logo, available from several online vendors or your local wrap place if you take them a good pix.

Unless you're trying to keep in original, I'd lean towards a vinyl replacement. As jbcurt00 noted, like a needle in a haystack and probably much easier to find some sort of alternative.

Thanks for the input guys. I would really like to stay with original

After doing some research I have decided I may try to replicate the emblem by making a silicone mold of my existing one and then pouring a new set of emblems out of epoxy.

you may think about making a few and reselling im sure there is a market depending on the amount of labor needed to accomplish such a task.
