Smooth Sailing FinancialLogo Design Contest

I think I'd like to circle back to this color of gold. But can we make the word "FINANCIAL" larger? Or bold? I don't like the white line through the center of the word, making it difficult to read.

I don't like this shade of gold. It's too much of a mustard color.

How about this?

This color gold is too yellow.

Can you turn the gold text a solid color of gold?

Can we circle back to this design and turn the background white, the word "FINANCIAL" gold, and "SMOOTH SAILING" some other color? Maybe a dark blue?

This is different... which makes it interesting. But I don't really understand what is to the left of the "S" in the logo.

If I choose a compass design, I think I'll choose one that is alot more ornate than this.

I don't want to have to think about the wave in the design completing the letter "F"

I think this is the best of the ones with black backgrounds, but I don't want a black background.
