ResultSee your exact matched port-and-starboard proof before you pay — most boat-number shops cut blind from an order form. Approved orders are cut within 1 business day and shipped Canada-wide. Made to order in Canada.
Choose one of the available height and finish combinations, enter the exact PCL or registration number and hull colour, then approve a matched port-and-starboard proof before checkout.
What this product is for
This product produces the visible licence or registration marking supplied by the boat owner. It does not issue a Pleasure Craft Licence, establish vessel ownership or replace the licence document carried on board. The number on the proof must match the buyer's current document exactly.
The product is made to order in Canada from the selected physical material. Your selected options and CAD price stay with the approved order so we print the configuration you purchased.
Choose the complete priced offer
Choose from white, black, red, gold and reflective white at 3, 4 and 6 inches. Reflective white is a priced finish rather than an unpaid request. Hull colour is captured before checkout so the buyer can judge contrast against the selected face.
Design help, source questions, uploads and unusual requests are checked and priced before printing proceeds.
Enter the production details before checkout
The product records the exact number, hull colour, intended surface and production instructions with the selected height and finish. If you include a boat photo or ask for design help, a real person reviews the order before printing, which is appropriate for compound curves, uncertain space, existing graphics or an unusual hull condition.
Required fields must be complete before the cart action is enabled. Your receipt keeps your supplied details, selected options and approved proof together for printing.
Approve the proof or ask for help
The proof shows the entered text, hull colour and selected options. Changing any of those details changes the displayed proof. Standard typed work can be approved on the page; if you submit a photo, request design help or enter anything that does not fit standard sizing, we hold the job so a real person can check it before printing.
The gallery images below support the sale, but they do not replace the first live proof panel. The customer's own input is what drives the proof, and any required check remains visible through checkout.
Keep the authority boundary clear
Current marking context is stated as Small Vessel Regulations (SOR/2010-91) and Transport Canada's licensing specifications. A Pleasure Craft Licence number is a bow marking; it is different from a hull identification number and from a manufacturer's compliance notice. The buyer checks the current document and boat-specific requirement before ordering.
The physical product follows buyer-supplied information. The buyer remains responsible for the current authority record, document, source instruction and use context that sit outside the print order.
Prepare the surface and placement
For a PCL marking, Transport Canada's current licensing guidance places the number on both sides of the bow, above the waterline, in contrasting block characters at least 7.5 centimetres high. Clean and dry the chosen hull area, avoid wax and oxidation, set a level guide and position the complete pair before application.
Actual fit, adhesion and service life depend on the selected material, surface preparation, installation, exposure, washing, abrasion and maintenance. Confirm the full bounding area rather than relying on a single height measurement.

Questions buyers ask
Does this listing create a new boat licence number?
No. Enter the exact number already issued to the boat.
Is reflective available as a real option?
Yes. Reflective white is built into the live finish and price matrix.
Why does the order ask for hull colour?
Hull colour helps the buyer confirm readable contrast before approving the proof.
Are HIN and PCL markings the same?
No. A hull identification number, a PCL bow marking and a compliance notice are different identifiers.
When does production stay on hold?
A boat photo, design-help request or text overflow keeps the order in human review.
