Creative block...Nautical Font?

[SoCalN8V]

I have a work order from a customer who has requested a "nautical font" for the words "Storage Locker". I'm completely at a loss. I've been racking my brain for the last hour trying to think of what would look nautical. All I need is a little push in the right direction...Do you guys have any ideas?

I have no idea what that could mean either... but for "STORAGE LOCKER" ...I would think the asthetics of typography at sea is much like it would be in the army... which is non-existent, therefore going with the trusty economical old standby that unimportant items like lockers would probably be lettered with....


...I vote STENCIL font

That's kind of what I was thinking but he asked for gold lettering with a black outline (should have mentioned that the first time).

You must throw...

and old fashioned key somewhere in the mix. Don't just do lettering.
