Permanently affixating the "official number" shown on the Certificate of Documentation?
 

Just got my COD for the new boat.


Where should I put the "official number" (preceded by the abbreviation
"NO"), and how do I *permanently* affix it?

Can I put it in a bilge area? And can I just carve it in with a dremel...or
dental drill? ;-)

=======================

Yes to all the above as long as the numbers are the correct size.

If you use the dental drill please make sure the patient is properly
anesthetized.

my contender has a brass plate epoxied to the keel forward of the fuel
tank - used clear epoxy - it's about as permanent as you can make it.

Thanks. For simplicity, I think I'm going to put vinyl numbers on an area
in the aft bilge by the generator...and then epoxy over them.

Is this COD different than certificate of number? I don't have a clue, but
in sticking with typical ng behavior I'm going to offer my $0.02. I was
just looking at that last night, and the USCG websites showed numbers on the
bow near the stickers. Try this if it applies to your question:

He's talking about the documentation number. Different animal.

I thought that might be the case. In my reading last night I came across
reference to documented vessels and certificate of number vessels. What's
the difference?

You are making this a lot harder than it actually is.

Certificate of number is what some STATES call what they issue so they can
collect taxes. You do not have to display ANYTHING on the bow of a
federally
documented boat other than possibly a small sticker from the state that
indicates that you have paid the state taxes. It has nothing at all to do
with
documentation.

Oh hell! It always comes back to taxes, doesn't it.
Thanks.
