Glad you found your certificate. I think you should now be able to get the USCG Aux to issue a wallet size card, perhaps for a small fee?

Out of state boaters don't stand out because of their bow numbers. They stand out because only NH has a 150' headway speed rule boat to boat where most other states only require headway speed near shore, docks, etc. I've heard MP ask out of staters if they are familiar with the 150' rule. They say yes, but they are not familiar with the New Hampshire 150' rule. Big difference.
