    But lettering--vinyl or paint--isn't going to cut it for a documentation
    number. It must be indelible--carved into a major structural member, a cast
    plate welded onto a steel or aluminum boat, or in some other way so
    permanently mounted that it's alteration, obliteration, or removal is easily
    detected.

    We have a board with the No. routed into it and then the board is stained
    and mounted with screws onto a bulkhead. It was the POs doing and, frankly,
    I didn't think it would stand scrutiny, but we've been boarded twice and the
    coasties haven't said anything. You can see part of it here, above and to
    the left of the stove http://www.mouseherder.com/xapic/pix05.html

    Also, don't forget the No. before the actual number and the Net xx after the
    number, they're required.

    =Good morning all,
    =I need to mount my vessel documentation number in the interior of my
    =sailboat. I have seen some that look pretty nasty. Any suggestions
    =on an attractive way to display the number? The interior is all teak
    =and very pretty, I hate to stick some ugly sign in there. I know
    =someone on the list must have a good idea. Also, I recall that
    =someone on the list does lettering and stuff like that, please
    =identify yourself. I would like to keep the cash flow on the inside
    =if possible.
    =
    =Thanks,
