Register of boat names?

[PhilipF]

I assume there is a central register of boat names, and have heard there is one but while searching on the obvious places, cannot locate it.

Is there one? If so anyone give the link please.

Thanks, Philip.

There is no central register of boat names AFAIK. Boats do not have to be registered and there are no national licensing requirements whereby a register could be compiled.

There is a register of vessels with radio licences but that is a different thing.

Is there somenthing specific you need to find (e.g. owner of boat who crunched into you?)

There is Small Ships Register. Cost you a tenner. Handy if going to France. Otherwise not worth a lot.

Theres Part one reg. But more to do with ownership.

But you can call your boat anything you want. Is that the answer you want??

The closest thing to a register is http://www.itu.int/cgi-bin/htsh/mars/ship_search.sh

Nearest thing to it is the MARS Database, which gives details of all craft with a marine radio license. Lloyd's Register used to do a book listing all yachts with Part 1 registration, but stopped in the 70s. Some forumites have old copies or you might be able to get one from your nearest reference library, on inter-library loan.

Hope this helps.

Doh! Beaten to it! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
