Thank you for keeping me straight.  Don't even know why that came up on my bookmarks - gone now. Haven't used them. My comment about the ease of use was for the National Vessel Documentation Center (NVDC) at the email that you cited. There is a vast difference between $26 and $75.  For that $75 you could get almost a three year renewal from NVDC.

I don't think that is the official USCG site. <https://maritimedocumentation.us/ <https://maritimedocumentation.us/>> is a third party private service.  No problem using them, it will just cost a bunch more and take longer.

The official, and MUCH cheaper, USCG site is:

Here's the instructions for initial documentation:

I had an issue with Touche's documentation.  The previous owner failed to clear a lien.  The folks at the "real" vessel documentation center were fairly helpful in resolving the issue.

    I had to redo mine when I added my son as 50% owner.  Did it all
    on the USCG web site <https://maritimedocumentation.us/>
    <https://maritimedocumentation.us/> and found it straight
    forward.  You can always try the site and see if it works for
    you.  If not, you can always try to find a reasonable service.
