What size are the boat numbers for licenced pleasure craft? All boat numbers for licenced pleasure craft are 3" high and our fonts range between 15" and 25" long depending on the font you choose. See the chart below.
Are the numbers pre-spaced or do I have to put each number on seperately? All our boat numbers arrive to you pre-spaced on a backing and pre-masked with a top masking hinge for very easy installation. The masking allows you to position and reposition the full decal until you are ready to apply it.
How are they applied? Ensure the surface is clean and dry, then use masking tape along the top of the decal to position it where you like. You can then cut the decal in a few places between the spaced letters. This will leave you with three small sections of masked numbers, held in place by the masking at the top. Simply lift up a section, carefully remove the backing, and then apply with the supplied squeegee. Don't worry if you mess up, just use the extra decal to try again!
When do you have to register a boat or small vessel? If you are a commercial vessel/boat with a motor over 10 hp you need to register. There are other cases, such as government vessels, that must be registered but check the Transport Canada website for more information. See the regulations here... http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/marinesafety/oep-vesselreg-registration-menu-2311.htm#registering
Which number is my licence number? The licence number is a unique alphanumeric number, typically starting with two letters indicating the province/territory, followed by numbers (e.g. ON123456). It can be found on your Please Craft Licence Papers in the top right under "Licence No.". This is to be displayed on both the port side and starboard side of your boat/jetski. It is NOT the Hull Identification Number (HIN).
