Florida doesn't require that a registration number be displayed on
documented vessels. You just pay for a sticker and place it on a port-side
portlight. This applies to any vessel that spends more than a month or so in
the state, regardless of where it is titled.
One downside to documentation is that you aren't eligible for the boat to be
classified as an antique vessel, which would reduce my annual fee from
somewhere around $125 to a couple of dollars. Only boats titled in Florida
are eligible for that. But it is a bear to move from documented to state
titled.
Boats qualify, if I remember correctly, when they are more than 30 years old
and have the original engine.

You'll need to ask the state. Each one seems to do it differently. In North
Carolina you need to get a state registration number, but do not need to
actually show the numbers - just the state sticker near the starboard bow. I
can't recall the state, but at least one requires you show the state number
even if documented. And Florida requires that you obtain a Florida
registration and display the Florida number even if documented and your home
state does not register documented vessels (which was the case here in NC
until lazy July).
There is no uniform system. Call the state.

Just got my boat documented with the CG. Do I notify the state and remove
the state registration numbers from the bow?
