Make sure you have correct documentation required to register and display a current validation sticker on both sides of the aftermost part of the hull in the upper, square foot, below the deck line. All other recreational boats moored in Oregon are required to have current validation stick- er. The certificate of number, commonly called the “registra- tion card,” is a pocket-sized card that must be on board and available for inspection by an enforcement officer whenever the boat is being operated. The registration number is specific to the boat and is issued with the title and regis- tration. The registration num- ber (OR#) and validation stick- er (decal) must be displayed on the starboard and port side bow of the boat. Once a number is issued, it can be painted, applied as a decal sticker, or otherwise affixed to the bow and placed above the water line so it can be read easily. Numbers are read from left to right on both sides of the bow and must be in 3-inch high block letters (not slanted) and separated by at least 2 inches. Letters must be in a contrast- ing color to the boat’s hull color or striping. The validation sticker (decal -good for two calendar years) must be affixed on each side of the boat and placed in line. The sticker on the port side is after the OR number and on the star- board side, before the OR num- ber (see illustration). The decal expires on Dec. 31 of the year indicated on the sticker. The certificate of title, cer- tificate of number and valida- tion stickers (decals) can be obtained by completing an application and submitting the proper fee with documentation to the Oregon State Marine Board. Many boat dealers will sub- mit the documents on your behalf for an agent fee. Obtaining a title and certifi- cate of number can take any- where from a month to four months, depending on the boat dealer or other documents that may be needed to complete the transaction. Failure to have a certificate of registration for documented vessels is a B violation and a $260 fine. Failure for a boat operator to carry a certificate of number is a D violation and a $$110 fine. Boaters can also be cited with failure to obtain a title, a D violation with $110 fine. To learn more about this topic and other legal require- ments of boating, visit www. boatoregon.com.
