If that's the case, you'll probably need to take a pencil etching of the HIN to your DMV to have the title corrected. It may also require a visual inspection by them to verify.

Ok for some reason this topic has been buggin me for a little while and I kinda wanna know whats right. SO the other day I decided to try and scrape away paint to better see the HIN and this is what I got......







I can barely make anything out and it looks like at some point something hit the hull right where the third letter of the hin is and basically chiped off that outer layer really obscuring the complet hin..... Could I get harassed by marine patrol or coast gaurd for this ? Any options on fixing the hin ?
