Where can I find a vessel’s USCG documentation number?
You can find a vessel’s USCG documentation number by conducting a search at our site. You can start with the form Foreign vessel title search request/transcript of registry or simply type in the vessel’s Official Number or HIN. Then, you’ll be provided with information about the vessel such as its documentation number, dimensions, particulars, tonnage information, the date its certificate of documentation was issued as well as the date it expires, and more.
On the Certificate of Documentation itself, you can find the documentation number in the top-center of the form.

Why would I need to upload documents?
To apply for several of our vessel documentation forms, the vessel owner will need to upload their own accompanying documentation. At all times, we do everything in our power to ensure that our clients’ information is protected.

Why would I want a certified copy of documentation?
A certified copy of documentation provides you with a legally-viable duplicate of your Certificate of Documentation. To be in compliance, you must have a Certificate of Documentation on board your documented vessel while in operation.
A non-certified copy is invalid, as is a picture, a photocopy, something in “the cloud,” and so forth. If your Certificate of Documentation is lost or mutilated, you must have a Certificate of Documentation to maintain your documentation.

Will the Coast Guard Send a Notice for Renewal of My Documentation?
Yes, they will. The NVDC mails renewal CG-128 notices to the addresses of all managing owners. This is done 45 days before your Certificate of Documentation’s expiration date.
HOW DO I REPORT A BOATING ACCIDENT?
Hopefully, you are never in any kind of boating accident, whether you have a documented vessel or any other kind. However, in the event that you are, there are certain protocols that you have to follow.
To wit, you have to report to your State reporting authority if on your vessel:
Someone dies.
Someone is injured and requires medical treatment beyond what first aid can provide.
Any damage to the vessel and other property exceeds $2,000 or more.
There is a complete loss of any vessel.
Someone disappears from the vessel under circumstances that indicate death or injury.
