You cannot have an open container on buckeye lake I believe. I have had the same issues with reg numbers. What I had to do was use block letters but shadow the block letters..so basically I had red block letters made in red, one size bigger then the blue ones..not as nice as I wanted but I also dont want to give them a reason to harrass me. Also after the year gets going they kind of back off on the reg numbers..but its always like that at the beginning of the year.

Default registration numbers

Just had the boat lettered this week. Red with black shadow and not block style. First day on the Ohio river got to cincy and on the way back we got stopped. Wrong style letters must be block and one color that contrast to the hull color.
Next question any alcohol on board. No. Well we will do a saftey inspection. Everythings good have a nice day not another mention of the registration.

You fill the blanks$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Interesting.... Seems like theres interpretation of the law here from one officer to another. Officer that did mine told me that the letters had to be black.

Mine fade from black to yellow, on a yellow hull. They must not be too hard to see, Homeland Security was able to make them out from i-don't-know-where and show up at my house the next day...

I read up on this just a few weeks ago just to make sure I was still legal-especially when going out on a holiday weekend!

Is there a website that OH has that lists regs? The inspection receipt I got lists a bunch of stuff, but I'd also like to know about the booze regs, etc, etc, etc...
