    That is one of the issues I am running into . . . my first choice is to have the emblems
    stripped and returned to me and I will do the fine tuning, make a rubber mold and cast them
    out of aluminum, which will hold a nice polish or, they can be chromed. I have contacted
    about 4 plating companies with the same replies – – – very expensive with a $500 minimum.
    and they don’t quote a firm price without actually seeing the items in their hands.
    Then, since this is a problem with other Borum boat owners, I could provide reproductions
    at a fraction of the cost of rechroming.
    Many reproductions can be made with the simple silicone mold or plaster of paris IF you have a good
    item to work with that is flawless.
    Thanks for the input – my quest continues
