Legislative Session: 83(R)

House Bill 115

House Author:  Larson

Effective:  9-1-13

Senate Sponsor:  Uresti


            House Bill 115 amends the Parks and Wildlife Code to require a vessel's identification number and registration decal to be painted on or attached to each side of the forward half of the vessel, rather than each side of the vessel near the bow.  If a vessel is configured so that a number on the hull or superstructure is not easily visible, the bill requires the vessel's identification number to be painted on or attached to a backing plate that is attached to the forward half of the vessel so that the number is visible from each side of the vessel.
