Will my boat numbers be 3 inches?
Yes, if you ordered them 3 inches.
But, in life, it’s never that simple.
A. Some people order smaller than 3 inches because they don’t have the room.
B. Some folks order with a font that has descending or ascending legs to their letters, but order and OVERALL size of just 3 inches. This can make individual letters a touch smaller. Also understandable since they might like that design but do not have room for more than an overall height of 3 inches.
Either way, we will make your order exactly as ordered. In our experience, there is no ‘wrong’ way to order your numbers. Maybe because the Enforcement Officers are riding around in a boat all day? We don’t know. But they seem fairly chill about these issues.
So don’t stress over this. We have sold hundreds of thousands of boat numbers. Quite a few fudge, on purpose, and make their numbers smaller. Others have on accident ordered smaller letters. Never have we heard of anyone getting a ticket for their letters being too small.
Still be reasonable. Or if you just want to ‘cover the bases’ and want to have no problems with the officer, keep it 3 inches or more, if you have the room.
Keep in mind, all work is custom. So, no problem for our designers to make further changes. Have changes or concerns? When ordering, add some notes. We will design whatever you have in mind.
