Got my boat USCG Document. I know the size and location for the name. But what do you guys do about displaying the numbers in the boat?? And where do you get them made up? Or do you just get vinyl numbers and put them somewhere???
Thansk

Installed mine in the engine compartment on the back of the back seat.C.G. can see them without boarding my boat if needed.

The cheapest and easiest is to get vinal numbers and glass them into the engine compartment so they are easy to see but hard to remove. In the instruction that come with the doc it will tell you how to do it.

I think doc. no's need to be located in engine compartment.

That's what I did also

yep ours are in wit the engines

mine are vinyl numbers and are in the engine compartment with a couple coats of clear over them

True


I put the Numbers on just to stop all the water cops from stopping me for no reason other then missing numbers

whats the purpose of documentation vs registration

no... documentation is federal.. no state can overide... but we are not reffering to state regestraion #... the documented vessel must have the documantaion # permenently fixed to the hull... i.e. in the enfine compertment glassed in or cleared over
