In The Lead with Stephen Miles of Stephen Miles Design

From his humble beginnings air-brushing T-shirts in a South Carolina beach town to designing and executing color schemes for some of the hottest go-fast catamarans and V-bottoms at his Kentucky home-base, Stephen Miles has always focused on unique artistry for each boat and creating an unforgettable, collaborative experience for its owners during the process.
That approach-plus his clear vision for every paintjob before it begins-has made Stephen Miles Design one of the world’s finest custom powerboat graphics shops.
