Has anyone documented their SCAMP with the USCG and been issued a USCG vessel registration number. Since the USCG now uses a private firm to handle vessel registration it seems they only document vessels over 25 feet in length.
Anyone attempt to document their SCAMP?

Re: USCG Documentation
SCAMP is way under the minimum size that the USCG will document -
A documented vessel is one that is registered by the Federal Government through the U. S. Coast Guard, rather than titled and numbered by a state. Pleasure vessels of 5 net tons and over (26 feet in length and up) may be documented, and commercial vessels 5 net tons and over must be documented.
