I'm finishing up my resto and need to put together the necessary legal and safety items for my boat. One of those items is properly placed registration letters. I should premise this, with this being my first boat in Illinois.
I walked into my local boat store, and took a gander at the lettering kits. Of course, I was attracted to the fancy "faded" letters with borders sold as kits.
I'd much rather get a set of pre-made vinyl cut letters to apply in one fail swoop vs trying to individually lay out numbers like I'm tagging my mailbox. So I went looking online and discovered a few comments from people saying that their letters are not real BLOCK letters and they have been hassled. I'm not looking to get into any kind of legal garbage with anyone in this state.
So my question is... What is classified as a legal 3" BLOCK letter? What font is it really? And are "shadows" and "outlines" allowed? I know that PWCs normally have them?
Thanks guys.
