What are the size and requirements for Washington boat numbers?
Excerpt from Washington Boat Regulations:❝

You may paint or permanently attach the number directly to the vessel or use a backing plate if you have a rubber boat or your boat is not built so the numbers would be otherwise visible. Registration numbers remain with the vessel permanently. Documented vessels Federal regulations prohibit the display of the WN registration number on vessels documented with the U.S. Coast Guard. You also must meet all Washington Stateregistration requirements. Display state registration decals on the forward half of the vessel so they are easily visible or law enforcement.
