Maine Boat Registration Lettering

Very seasonal boating in Maine but if you are a boater you'll want to make sure you boat displays hull identification numbers properly. We have a collection of information right here to help you do just that.

General information about numbers

We'll guide you through the process of creating Maine boat numbers when you click design now. Each state has specific verbiage as to their requirements. See the Maine specific section below. The general requirements for boat registrations numbers are as follows:

  • A minimum of 3" letter height
  • A block style font such as (impact or arial black)
  • Generally located on the forward hull portion of the boat next to the DNR tag
  • A contrasting color to base color of your boat.
  • Letters separated by a space or a dash (-)

Maine Specific Registration Laws

Please review your state specific requirements before purchasing identification decals as they do vary from state to state. Our designer is setup to comply with the general requirements above. If you require a specific requirement not in our designer, just leave a comment at checkout and we'll adust your design (no big deal!). Maine has a nice boater guide book that everyone should review. The registration information portion is located Here.

Placement Information

Maine specifies that boat numbers be placed on the forward portion of the boat (the bow) on both sides.

Number Kits are Standard

Our maine number kits are solid as a pair with 2.
