Super User J Francho Posted March 13, 2018 Super User Posted March 13, 2018 Mine doesn't match my boat at all - look in my avatar pic. 1 minute ago, Bolar said: Not too bad. Are you going to disassemble an existing seat or buy a mount for the bottom? You'd want a taller, adjustable pole for this, and they usually come with the mounting bracket. 1 Quote

Yes am getting a taller adjustable pole for the seat … adjustable to 22.5" - 29.25". Runs like $80 at BPS before VIP card. 1 Quote

Super User J Francho Posted March 13, 2018 Super User Posted March 13, 2018 Yeah, but if you are taking kids out, or my dad (kidding) they usually want the chair. Wrap them in plastic if they're gonna be in storage, to protect the vinyl. 1 Quote

SeriousBlack Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Can you guys with your boats verify if the lettering on the decal on the windshield has black or brown surrounded by orange? I think it's black but want to make sure. About to order my bow registration numbers. Thanks! 1 Quote

Do I get them from the state? Will they send me something? Or should I be doing something on my side? Thanks. Quote

Where did you go through to order your decals? Quote

Where did you go through to order your decals? From my past experience the registration numbers are issued by the state in which you register. I am not sure if you can request specific numbers like auto license plates. Once registration is processed they will send you paperwork back with your registration numbers 1 Quote
Bisk1tSnGraV Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Thanks guys … was thinking that was it but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything. Quote

Perfect, thanks! I'll do the same! I drove through an hour through a snow storm today to register my boat. Added some white walls to my truck. Must get ready for fishing!!! 4 Quote

Where did you go through to order your decals? I took my Manufacturer's Statement of Origin For A Boat to the NH Motor Vehicles to register my boat. They gave me my registration with my boat numbers and validation stickers. Took about 15 minutes at the most when I got there. No lines or traffic in a snow storm... 1 Quote
Super User J Francho Posted March 14, 2018 Super User Posted March 14, 2018 You get your numbers when you register. You can find decals at any home improvement/hardware shop. They need to be 3" tall, and clearly legible at a distance, per US Coast Guard laws. This is one area where being stylish might get you a ticket. https://www.boatus.com/boatgraphics/uscg-requirements.asp https://www.uscgboating.org/images/420.PDF 4 Quote

As in my case in Indiana the numbers have to be a single color contrasting to the background and have specific spacing. Additionally they are suppose to be "Block" lettering, what ever font that is. If you have the rest correct I think you might be able to get away with more on the font. I'm not sure, I've never even been stopped for a fishing license check . 1 Quote
Super User J Francho Posted March 14, 2018 Super User Posted March 14, 2018 US Coast Guard rules are what drive state laws. Block lettering is not italicized, sans serif, with squared edges, meaning not bubble letters. Spacing is the width of one letter, not including "I". Contrasting color is also a USCG requirement.
