+1 All it takes is filling out a few forms and services will charge like $500 for this. It's very easy.

Cant go wrong to Doc. the boat.------Very easy ! Years ago when they still had district offices I had a local kojack hassel me and stopped my boat for having no numbers on it..Told -him th boat was documented and he told me B.S. --- Until I pulled the papers out .....Later in the week I was in Cleveland on business and stopped at the Coast Guard 9th District offices and talked to the documentation officer about what happened and he called the local police Chief and read the Riot act to him about me being jerked around........Jim

Apologies for my low awareness factor and being late to the party.

If you're boat is USCG documented you do not have to display numbers?
