Oday Oday 22 Miami
I have been updating my Oday 22 and wanted to create a logo for the hull. The typography is relatively easy. The font most matches Century Gothic Bold. If you are getting a decal made at a sign shop then these are the type kerning instructions.

At 48 point type, the "day" in Oday is kerned at -105. This will bring the group of letters exactly to the spacing on the logo. The space between the O and the d is kerned at -75. Also the O is created by reducing its width to 99% All the letters must go on the same baseline to look authentic.

I hope this helps with your Oday project.

A trident flag symbol and typography can be downloaded from any one of these two website links.
