Introduction
The request for deletion from documentation form is designed for removing a vessel from Coast Guard documentation enrollment. It covers the necessary citations to satisfy the National Vessel Documentation Center's requirements for such accommodation. This includes a request for a letter evidencing the removal. The form also facilitates the recording of ancillary forms such as transfer instruments and satisfactions of mortgage.
Context
Vessel owners should file a deletion with the National Vessel Documentation Center immediately when the vessel has been transferred, destroyed, stolen or upon election to remove the vessel from documentation altogether. This is especially important for commercially endorsed vessels if sold to a foreign citizen.
