    In a message dated 6/1/2006 9:42:56 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time,
     writes:

    About to put on the name and hailing port. The name letters will be at
    least 7" tall, and the current configuration has the hailing port name about
     1.5"
    for lower case and 2.7" for upper case.

    Think this is o.k.?

    The boat will be documented.
     
    And from the National Vessel Documentation Center FAQ:
     
     
    HOW DO I MARK MY VESSEL?
    The official number assigned to documented vessels, preceded of the
    abbreviation "NO." must be marked in block-type Arabic numerals at least three inches
    high on some clearly visible interior structural part of the hull. The
    number must be permanently affixed so that alteration, removal, or replacement
    would be obvious and cause some scarring or damage to the surrounding hull area.
    The name and hailing port of a recreational vessel must be marked together on
     some clearly visible exterior part of the hull. The vessel name of a
    commercial vessel must also be marked on the port and starboard bow and the vessel
    name and the hailing port must also be marked on the stern. All markings may
    be made by any means and materials that result in durable markings and must be
    at least four inches in height, made in clearly legible letters of the Latin
     alphabet or Arabic or Roman numerals. The "hailing port" must include both a
     place and a State, Territory, or possession of in the United States. The
    state may be abbreviated.
