I'm Don Burda of Don Burda Design. I've been painting AZ numbers, transom names / graphics and custom paint for water and sand toys in Havasu since 2002. The recession is kicking my arse and I sure could use some work. If you contact me for a project and mention you saw this post on River Dave's, I will give you 10% off. Below are some samples of my work: feel free to contact me: [email protected]

What do you charge for the name and a little cartoon like that?

If you have the vector file (original .eps), I generally charge $100.00 per mask layer to paint. If you don't I will have to digitize the design. I'm not quite sure what you're referencing by "name and a little cartoon", but if you post it here or email it to me ([email protected]), I can give you an accurate quote. Variables that can apply: size, number of locations (ie pair of az numbers), any airbrush effects required: fades, 3d, reflective horizon, etc.

Many replied to this thread stating they were thinking about having something done come boating season, so consider this my reminder to anyone in need of new painted AZ, CF or NV numbers or transom names with or without graphics, or...custom paint.

Happy boating!

Don,

You did mine three years ago. It was a windy day in Havasu when you were painting in your driveway... I helped shield the wind. :) The AZ's came out beautiful! Thanks, again.

I can vouch for Don's work, been working with him for many years now and can honestly say that he's one of the best artist out there in this field and it shows in his work (pride of ownership) plus he's a good guy !! :)

I can vouch for Don's work (Significant Other). We exchanged a few emails with ideas and dimensions since I was in CA and the boat in Parker.........once he came up with what I was looking for, I towed her up to Havasu. Dropped it off in the morning and he had it done by 3. Fair price and quality work. Thanks again Don.
