Our Customers Say It Best
The finished product in your hands is spectacular. I presented three prints to my crew at our Club prizegiving. They were very well received and wowed those who were assembled.

Art You'll Love Just Like Your Boat
Any Boat. Power or Sail.
Authenticity matters at Dogwatch Art Co. We're the only service on the internet to offer yacht illustrations with this high level of detail. We can illustrate and print any type of hull with a photo of your boat and a few details from you. From Alerion Yachts to Zeelander Sport Cruisers, we've got it covered. Choose between our Standard Flush Deck Half Hull Print or Half Hull Print With Deck Details. Struggling to find a photo? No worries. Upload any reference image, and we'll contact you for the details.
How This Works
Step 1
Upload a photo of your boat and provide us with a few details.
Upload one or more photos of your boat, so we can match the colors and configuration in your print. We'll ask you for the boat name, model, build year, and anything else you'd like to add to make your print special. We can add burgees, logos, crew signatures, and custom graphics to any print.
Step 2
We illustrate your boat, design your print, and send you a proof.
We'll create a detailed illustration of your boat, expertly apply your personalization choices and custom graphics, and provide you with a high-resolution digital proof for your review and approval. With unlimited revisions, we'll keep working until your print is just the way you want it.
Step 3
We make any changes you'd like and then print, frame, and deliver.
We'll professionally produce your print on archival, acid-free matte paper stock for sharp details and brilliant colors. Then, we'll frame it in one of our ready-to-hang gallery frames, box it up, and ship it directly to any doorstep.

High-Quality Illustration and Graphics
Airbrush-Quality Illustration
We create each half hull illustration to order through a disciplined and precise process designed to produce an uncommon, highly detailed print.
Custom Graphics
From yacht club burgees to logos and crew signatures, we can add just about any custom graphic to your print.
Lightweight and Thoughtful Gallery Frames
Our black contemporary gallery frames feature solid wood mouldings from renewable forests and lightweight acrylic glazing for superior UV protection. A sawtooth hanger is included in the package. In most cases, all you'll need is a nail and a hammer to hang your print.
Durable Packaging That's Nice to Open
Your framed print is first wrapped in a layer of adhesive bubble wrap or a foam pouch and then shipped in a hinged carboard box for a pleasant unboxing experience. Prints are wrapped in tissue paper to protect them from scratches and then shipped in durable triangular kraft boxes or cardboard tubes to ensure safe delivery.
Frequently Asked Questions
The photo of your hull is the most important part of your order. Please follow the guidelines below, so we can represent your yacht authentically.
Take a photo or choose an existing photo that is taken in daylight.
Use a smartphone or high quality camera.
Be sure the photo of your boat is taken from the side and includes as much of the keel and rudder as possible.
Do not use filters on the photos, so that we can be sure we see the correct paint colors.
Yes. Typically within 3 business days, you will receive an email asking you to review and approve your proof. We give you 24 hours to approve or request changes. After 24 hours have passed, we proceed to printing to ensure a speedy delivery.
In many cases we can find a complete set of lines from our archive or online and proceed with your order. Place your order with the best photo you can find, and we will take it from there. If for some reason we get stumped, we'll refund your order immediately with our apologies. Or, we'll create a print down to the waterline. The choice is yours.
Depending on your order, multiple items could ship separately. Framed prints need to ship individually, however prints can often be bundled together. We do our best to minimize shipping costs.
The custom art fee covers our cost to produce the custom art for your print. The fee is automatically added to cart when you order a print. This is a one-time fee per boat. These means you can order more than one print without being charged again for the artwork.
Yes. If you've ordered with us before, we can reprint your order. We save all of the artwork we produce. We'll simply need your original order number to track it down. And, you guessed it, we won't need to charge you for the custom art. If you're interested in a reprint, email us at mike@dogwatchart.com to get the ball rolling.
