The NMMA capacity plate format looks completely different than what your vendor produced. That is a very poor "reproduction".
See this is an example:

Since yours is wrong, I would request a refund and order the correct plate from Magic Brush. Janis, the owner, is the only authorized Whaler decal vendor and is also a whaler owner.

Hi Phil. I actually purchased this capacity sticker from Magic Brush, along with a new HIN plate and a set of side decals. I worked with Tom, not Janice (he answered the phone). In all fairness, I only specified my year and model number (1975 Montauk). I did not supply the hull length or a capacity plate format/ratings (frankly, I did not know what the ratings were). I remembered reading a post from Joe that these folks were the authorized suppliers for these items. I supposed I assumed they had official Whaler information on the ratings.
I will check call Tom (or Janice) and let them know I have the wrong capacity sticker. In boat terms, the cost was low: 12 bucks. I will see if they will send me the correct one at cost. I have a feeling we need to keep these folks in business!
