The hailing port does belong on the transom, no? 

And the boat name also, but I can't believe it is illegal to also have it on
the side -  '

 

I think I was told That Canadians are required to have name on the side of
the boat. The (Canadian)PO of mine put the name as bold as dogshit all over
the side of the boat.  Painted, no less. Would cost a fortune to remove.

Regarding the clearly visible, I think they mean that they don't want to
crawl into the steerage compartment to see it.

I was researching where I could put my boat name on the hull and realize
that I was illegal for the last two years for having the name on the side
and the hailing port on the transom.  I also came across this on the uscg
site:

 

The official number assigned to documented vessels, preceded by the
abbreviation "NO." must be marked in block-type Arabic numerals at least
three inches high on some clearly visible interior structural part of the
hull.

 

I was unaware of this requirement.  Do others have this label, and if so,
where did you put it?  Thanks- Dave
