Every customer has a unique boat, so Charlie listens carefully and asks questions centered around legibility.
Sometimes the customer specifies an unusual combination of lettering style or colors, and is happy with the result. In most cases, a careful balance and proportion of letters works better than flashy effects.
Although Charlie has worked at billboard scale, you won't see 18-wheel trucks or letters landing on door cracks. Just some mock-ups and snapshots taken under working conditions.
