SSR part 3 registration number and display requirement.

[TSB240]

Has anyone registered their boat for part 3 this year?

Is there still a requirement for the ssr number to be visible on the hull?

The UK registration Web site is no help!

I was issued an electronic certificate with no further guidance.

I seem to remember that for my previous boat they sent a full size photo copy of the numbers to be displayed and a small registration card.

The electronic pdf certificate has the manufacturers hull number as embossed in the original moulding.

I assume this is sufficient proof of boat identity.

Ditto, I've just done mine last week - bit of a faff doing it online but managed it and as said, only a digital document and no actual card. So I have to print it out...

I lamented the Loss of the Blue Card Holder years ago ... so used to scan / print the card and size to the old Blue Holder .... I still have mine in the drawer even though I had to change to Latvian Register

Yes -= I am also one who mourns the loss of the older 100 page UK Passport ... todays pitiful document - printed I believe in France ....

SSR number transfers can but purchased from many vendors. If you are any good with a paintbrush can be hand painted on.

Yes the number does need to be displayed but there are no longer any requirements or even recommendations as to the size or font. Not enforced in the UK but when you travel it can be a requirement elsewhere to have them shown.
