States may require registration for documented vessels, but they cannot
require you to display registration numbers on the boat. They may
require display of a sticker indicating that state fees/taxes have been
paid. Federal laws always supersede state law. It violates Federal Law
to display state registration numbers on a federally documented vessel.

Subject: Re: Stus-List "Maritime Documentation Center"
Michigan requires that you display the Michigan Registration
sticker on documented boats. You will get a registration number
when you register the boat but you do not have to display them.
Before I renewed the documentation on Corsair (Redwing 35), I
displayed the registration numbers on a plastic panels hung from
the bow lifelines. Michigan has now outlawed that so I documented
Corsair. I hate putting registration numbers on the fiberglass
bow. Grace (C&C 35-3) already had registration numbers on the bow
and has never been documented.
Interestingly enough, the water cops all think any boat over 25'
that doesn't display registration numbers must be documented so
they don't check. Even if they aren't displaying the registration
sticker.

Florida has a wonderful discount for “antique” vessels at least
30 years old.
I think I pay $5 a year – as opposed to maybe $135 – because I
sail a good old boat. Florida also requires a state decal for
federally documented vessels such as mine, by the way.

Yes, it’s a sore subject for PA boaters on Lake Erie. The law
was changed several years ago to require State registration of
Federally documented recreational vessels. Registrations last two
years, then must be renewed. I don’t put my stickers on the bow,
but they are affixed to fiberglass supports (port and starboard)
for the main traveler and are clearly visible. Don’t want to
give my good friends at the PFBC another reason to board.
