Submit a boat-number proof request: a review checklist
Check the identifier, dimensions, hull background and requested options before submitting a registration-number design for review.
Boat registration numbers are the alphanumeric hull ID required on both sides of a motorized vessel's bow. To choose and order compliant decals, start with the exact text on your registration card, pick a readable block font, a contrasting color, and at least the 3-inch minimum height, then order precision-cut Oracal 651 marine vinyl that ships pre-spaced on transfer tape.
Review the details before sending the proof request
Compare the entered identifier with the registration certificate, then check character height, full sequence width and the background behind every character. Keep a side-on hull photograph and the measured panel with your request. Explain any fixed stripe, raised seam or fitting that the flat preview cannot represent.
The current studio submits a design for human review and says no payment is due yet. Confirm the reviewed price, production timing and delivery steps through the resulting process; do not treat the preview button as a completed purchase.
