Boat Info Worn Off?

commanche · 03-24-07, 10:28 PM

hello folks, question..my nitro is 12 years old.the placard mounted on the drivers side has worn off over years..this was like sticker material not metal plate..

my other boats have metal plate and info is stamped in metal,this one it just wore off on sticker..

i guess by law you have to have that info displayed?
what do you all do about this?

Personally I would forget about it. Unless you live in a state that the water patrol are buttholes dont worry about it.

i have another boat and its stamped in metal plate..why my nitro would use sticker is beyond me,,

yes, here in pa. they do check it if you have people in boat,by yourself or just 2 people, they dont but if more than 2 ,they check it..

they also check your batterys to see if you have the red cap on your postive terminal..
