First question on any boat — state-registered, or USCG documented?

This page is for state-registered boats. These are your state-compliant 3-inch boat registration numbers, both sides — the number your state issued you.

It is not the USCG official number. A documented vessel displays no state bow numbers at all — it carries its name and hailing port instead, and if there is a commercial endorsement on its certificate the required layout changes again. Documented either way? You want Boat Name & Hailing Port Lettering, not this page. Not sure which you are? Your registration card or Certificate of Documentation says so — text a photo to 509-720-8239 and we will tell you before you buy anything.

Nothing is cut until you approve your proof.

Legal, compliant, and cut from premium 3M marine cast vinyl. Registration numbers for both sides of your bow, built to your state's exact display rules, verified June 2026.

What happens after you order
  1. Order, or text us a photo of the hull — 509-720-8239.
  2. We prepare your proof — we email within one business day to confirm your registration number exactly as issued, and your colour.
  3. You approve it. Nothing goes on the machine before you say yes.
  4. We cut your numbers from 3M marine cast vinyl.
  5. We ship your kit free, or schedule your install.
We handle compliance for you
  • Washington (WAC 308-93-145): WN prefix, plain vertical block over 3 inches, solid contrasting colour, both sides of the bow, space or hyphen between groups. No I, O or Q.
  • Idaho: ID prefix, 3 inch block letters, validation sticker within 6 inches.
  • Script, italic and outline fonts are not legal for registration numbers. Boat names and hailing ports can use them — see Boat Name & Hailing Port Lettering.
One thing we will not do

We do not cut vinyl for a USCG official number. Under 46 CFR 67.121 that number must be permanently affixed to an interior structural part of the hull in block characters not less than 3 inches. Vinyl does not satisfy it, and nobody here can sign off on an exception. State bow numbers on this page are a different requirement entirely, and vinyl is exactly what they call for.

Why cast vinyl on a hull

Calendared film shrinks. On a hull that means the edges lift, water gets under the letters, and by the second season you are looking at a shadow of your old numbers. We run 3M commercial cast air-release film on every marine job. It conforms to the curve, it does not shrink back, and it survives trailering, ramp scuffs and a Coeur d'Alene summer. Gelcoat, painted hulls, aluminium and poly kayaks all take it.

Your set ships free nationwide as a ready-to-apply kit with transfer tape and printed instructions.

Add-ons

Prepping the application area is included. Old vinyl removal, damaged surfaces, gelcoat work and travel outside our service area are add-ons — quoted in person at the inspection, before any work starts.

Warranty

If JZAC vinyl fails because of a defect in the material or a JZAC installation, we replace it. Self-apply customer installation workmanship is not covered, because we do not control surface preparation or application. Either way, if we cut it wrong or the film is defective, we remake it.

Custom product returns

These numbers are cut to your registration, so they cannot be returned for a change of mind once the approved artwork has been cut. That is why we send a proof first and cut nothing until you approve it. If we make a mistake, we fix it — call or text 509-720-8239.
