Review required before production or reliance.
Any certification or reference marks that appear on your label are reproduced from artwork or wording you supply. They are not independently verified by us, and we do not issue, validate, or certify compliance marks of any kind.
Choose for contrast, fit and proof
- Enter the hull colour before checkout so it stays with the proof and order.
- Use a face colour that remains readable against the actual hull; white and reflective white are priced choices in the canonical offer.
- Measure the full number width and avoid seams, hardware, tight curves, wax and oxidation.
- Approve the exact buyer-supplied number rather than relying on a sample image.
Authority and buyer boundary
The verified source record is Transport Canada’s Small Vessel Regulations context and Safe Boating Guide (TP 511E). Current guidance describes the PCL number in contrasting block characters at least 7.5 centimetres high on both sides of the bow above the waterline. The customer checks the current document and boat-specific requirement before ordering.
This is a physical marking service. It does not issue a number, approve a boat, replace a licence document, hull identification number or compliance notice, or guarantee an enforcement outcome.

Questions before checkout
Is this a separate boat-number product?
No. This page helps you choose the right configuration, then sends the order to one canonical product so pricing, proof and production details stay together.
Does the decal issue or replace a Pleasure Craft Licence?
No. The buyer supplies the number from the current document. The physical marking does not issue, renew, transfer or replace a licence or establish ownership.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm the exact number, current boat-specific requirement, usable surface, finished height, contrast, placement and full text width before approving the proof.
Configure the correct marking once
Choose the live product, enter the exact buyer-supplied number and surface details, then review the connected proof before checkout.
