1. Old Glory pontoon boat wrap from Car Wrap City

The people who owned this Voyager Pontoon Boat asked for a design that used the Stars and Stripes, but to give the illusion of movement. You have to say, that it’s been achieved. To get a quote for something similar, contact Car Wrap City in Texas.

Continuing on with the flag theme is this next stunning example which incorporate the Stars and Stripes, but also includes a quote from the pledge of allegiance. This very detailed design is by Fast Trac Designs of Phoenix, Arizona.

03. Brown and golden swirls idea from Gator Wraps

I couldn’t find out if this vinyl wrap design has a name, but it looks golden brown, and it’s swirly. If you like that kind of thing, then Gator Wraps are your go to vehicle wrapping company. They are based in Ontario, California.

04. Star and Stripes with eagle graphics from Gator Wraps

Another great effort from Gator Wraps, with this side vinyl wrapping of the American flag with the eagle. You can certainly see a pattern emerging here, with plenty of patriotic pontoon boat owners. Does this give you any ideas you could use on your own pontoon?

Ink Wrap are based in Arizona, and have built up an outstanding reputation for amazing vinyl wraps and decals. I love this colorful example below.

Here’s another example where a local business has asked Ink Wrap to come up with a stunning pontoon graphic to help advertise their services. I love the fact that somewhere in Arizona you can order a burger and get it delivered to you via a pontoon boat. It sure beats taking your own sandwiches with you!

08. Dukes of Hazzard wrap graphics from Fast Trac Designs

Whoever came up with this pontoon wrap idea is an absolute legend. I didn’t notice at first, because my eye was drawn into the 01 number on the side, but look at the front of the pontoon boat? It’s got the grill on it just like the Dodge Charger from TV series… this. is. amazing. period.

09. Pontoon tube graphics from HS Sign Shop

12. Cultured Infidels vinyl wrap from Print Crazee

Print Crazee are a print shop based in Southern Illinois. They charge between $1,200 to $3,500 for a custom wrap design job.

You can see a photo of their Cultured Infidels project below, and then a video underneath that showing the process involved.

13. Bright colors and stars from Car Wrap City

Yet another stunner from Car Wrap City with their fully customized wrap on a Sun Tracker pontoon boat. The boat owner requested that the graphics included skulls,  cowboy hats and some smoke detail. The graphics and design were finished off with an airbrush style for a hauntingly cool look and feel.

15. Soaring Spirit from Gator Wraps

Another inclusion from Gator Wraps now. This is one of the most detailed wraps in this portfolio, with the eagle and forest imagery. If you want something this good, Gator Wraps offer finance deals to customers both in California and from further afield.

17. Kona Kai Tiki Key West from Da Vinci Wrap Masters

A new entry here from Da Vinci Wrap Masters based in Chicago. I think the example below might be Photoshopped, but if the final live version comes out anything looking like this, then it is worthy of being one of the best pontoon boat wraps I’ve featured on this list.

18. Custom boat graphics from WrapCo Graphics

Another video now, with this YouTube demonstration on how WrapCo Graphics of Illinois go about their work. In this film you can see how the graphics come fresh off the printer and then get prepared for installation. A pontoon boat wrap can make a huge difference to how an older boat can look.

And finally, one last video from the team at 619 Decals. In this film they demonstrate how they took the existing vinyl wrap off a tired looking pontoon boat, to replace it with a new custom design.

Types of Wraps and Graphics to Consider

• Vinyl Wraps: Vinyl is a durable and high quality material, and gives boat owners lots of options for customizing and protecting their boat. The variety of colors, patterns and designs allows boat owners to create a vessel that is perfect for their personal style, while the durability of vinyl offers protection from UV rays, scratches, and other environmental factors.  
• Custom Graphics: For even greater personalization of your boat, consider custom graphics. Working with a professional designer, you can create a one-of-a-kind design that might include anything from the name of your boat to intricate artwork or images. Custom graphics printed on high quality vinyl give the exterior of your boat an appearance that is distinctively yours.  
• DIY Options: For boat owners on a budget or owners who enjoy working on a project, a DIY wrap is a great option. DIY kits are available from most companies, and include detailed instructions as well as all the materials you will need. Although a kit may require more time and effort on your part, it can save you money and gives you a real sense of accomplishment when completed!

How much does it cost to vinyl wrap a pontoon boat?

So now you have seen some of the best pontoon wrap ideas and graphics I can find, let’s get into some more detail. For example, what is an average pontoon boat wrap cost?

Well, not many of the graphics companies will advertise their prices online, as in most cases you will need to get a bespoke quote depending on the size of your pontoon. Other ways in which the cost can fluctuate will be regarding who does the design.

For example, if you come with your own design already made up, that will reduce their design costs. It will be more expensive if you get a skilled designer to create something from scratch. However, Print Crazee in Illinois state they will charge between $1,200 to $3,500 for a custom pontoon wrap design and graphics.

I also saw a pontoon owner on a web forum saying the following.

“It depends on whether you just want the fences wrapped, or also want to include graphics on the pontoons. For both, you might be looking at a cost of $1,000 to $2,000 depending on how elaborate you need the graphics and design. If it’s jus the fencing, you could be looking at wrap costs of between $600 to $1,200.”

Does vinyl wrap work on pontoon aluminum?

Yes, it does, and I’ve put together a more in-depth response to this question which you can read here.

The beauty of vinyl wrap is reversibility. If you don’t’ like it, just use a heat gun and peel it all off. You can then change the colors when you want with little prep work.

Can you vinyl wrap a pontoon boat yourself?

This is not a project I have ever done myself. For me, it’s certainly something I would leave to the professional pontoon boat graphics companies.

However, some boat owners do it, and get great results. Here are some comments from people on social media who have taken the DIY approach.

“I would suggest measuring each panel with a fabric tape measure. That way you get the curves and draw the panels on a sheet of paper. That will save you time and money for your lay out to be done by a sign designer. Very easy to install also.”

“You don’t have to take the panels out of the fence. I just cut a little bigger then needed and trimmed off what I didn’t need. I then used a gift card to smooth out and work bubbles. The biggest thing to know is that you need some soapy water in a spray bottle to spray the panel first get it wet so you can work in the vinyl. All in all, took about an hour and a half.”

“It’s possible to buy textured vinyl graphics, but you will need to make sure they are printed on wrap vinyl. It actually has a textured backing to allow you to squeeze and press the air out through the vinyl. I have worked in the sign field for 24 years and vinyl is amazing to work with. You can ball it up and pull it apart, then heat it with a heat gun and pop it back to shape.”

The last word…

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing these pontoon wrap ideas and vinyl graphics as much as I enjoyed finding them online. If you see anymore great designs then I would love to hear from you. Or perhaps you are a print company and would like your work featured. Whatever it is, get in touch with me and I will endeavour to update this page as and when I get new ideas to list.
