Hi all

You quite regularly see boats of all shapes and sizes with the boat name painted on the transom or stern, and then followed by the port of registration, for example " Truant... of Brighton "

My question is, does the " ...of Brighton " have to remain??
On the very fisrt Bill of Sale, the boat name was "Truant of Brighton" , but she has since been sold (I think) around 4 times, and on all the following bills the name is just "Truant" with no "...of Brighton" on the name.

I have removed the old name a replaced with a nice new one, (same name of course) but I was wondering if I needed to add the port of registration or wether I can add the river of where she is now kept, ie Medway or Gillingham.

Does any body know or have any thoughts on this??
Many thanx
