Registration sticker holder for inflatables

[gwozhog]

After doing a few hours of internet research this is what i came up with. I used a piece of same material my boat was made from a patch repair kit and went to a fabric store and bought some 20 gauge clear vinyl. I then took both pieces to an auto upholstery shop and had him sow three sides. Then glue the patch to the boat and you now have a bulletproof sticker holder.

That works!

After I lost a sticker I bought the ridged sticker holders and haven't lost a sticker since.

lacking the ingenuity of the OP as I do, where can I find the ridged sticker holders?

Registration Sticker Holders for Inflatable Boats, Pair

You still will need a good two part glue which will cost as much as the sticker holder. Might want to see how much a local repair shop will charge.

Thanks for the link, and the info on the glue. I'll check with the local marine shop and see if they can do that (will do it).

So, the registration sticker won't stay on the tube alone? I just finished top coat painting my RIB and haven't placed it in the water yet. I was planning to stick it right on the tubes. I'm hopping to put it in the water this weekend.

If you roll it up after each use the sticker will probably not survive long if it is just stuck on the tube.
