Marek:
In hindsight, no, I did not register the name.....just licensed the boat
to get the 'license numbers'.
I made up the name thinking no one else would copy me and yet a boat
here at the Armdale club did.....I took the word 'azure', the color
blue, dropped the 'e' and added an 'a'....and capitalized to get
"AZURA"....meaningless name.

Rob,
Are you sure you “registered”? Normally, you get the boat only
“licensed” with TC. Though, in Halifax, you may want to register, as I
bet you sail outside of the Canadian waters.
When you license, you have to renew every 5 years, if I remember
correctly. But I don’t think there is any cost to it (after the
initial $30 or so).

I registered my boat in 2006 with Transport Canada and have never
heard from them since.

Hi Dennis
It seems a bit different in Canada. I received something in mail
from Transport Canada that I was not expecting. Upon opening it was
the new certificate of registration. They issue one every three
years. I did not even request it – it just came automatically.
The even better news is that they also did not require me to pay
anything.

Well, gee. I just got my "courtesy" renewal notice from "Maritime
Documentation Center". I promptly emailed them an "official notice
of shame". :)
For those who are new the list a while and haven't seen our derision
at these folks, let me elaborate. The "Maritime Documentation
Center" is NOT the US Coast Guard's Vessel Documentation Center
(VDC). It is a third party entity who will gladly charge you three
times the fee of the VDC for doing what you can do on the VDC's
website in under 5 minutes. It's not illegal, just irritating.
They simply send you an official looking courtesy notice for
renewal. It may show up slightly before the USCG VDC's real renewal
notice.
Do not be fooled. The VDC fee for renewal is $26. Pay no more. The
official VDC website is here:
