Nearly Thoughtless Thursday: Hailing Port

When the sun came up this past Tuesday morning, Meander’s stern looked like this.

Before the sun went down Tuesday evening, it looked like this.

Boats that are documented (that is, nationally registered) in the United States must display their hailing port conspicuously somewhere on their hull.

And we found Meander in Fairport, VA. But that’s not where we left her.

Completing a process that began with the filing of a small form and the payment of a large fee,  Meander is once again in full compliance with applicable U.S. maritime regulations.

Glad that’s done.
