idk i like 16 i think, the circle w black bg
Everyone likes the boat/moon ones, except me! What (if anything) do you dislike about the logos that are similar to the original?
i think the non boat/moon ones are abstract to the point that the viewer can’t find anything to hold on to. the boat/moon ones have a nice familiarity.
Looking at these reminds me of some interesting logo work I've seen where a brand doesn't settle on one logo but ends up implementing a pattern or algorithm that defines a spectrum of visually cohesive logos where all of them are valid brand marks. Here's an example:
I think the majority of your options could be condensed into a simple generative algo that makes visually cohesive marks at random. They all look like "you". But they are all unique. Food for thought.

My favorite is #17 clean, different from anything else. 👍
