Re: Stus-List UCCG documentation warning going around

Dave I am glad to hear that. I wish the "U.S. VESSEL DOCUMENTATION" notice hadn't arrived in my mail first. Incidentally the link below appears to be broken; I can't find any such article on cruisersnet.net. But it's interesting, because somebody else must have gotten burned and posted about

Re: Stus-List Deceitful USCG Documentation Renewal Company

As fate would have it, my official USCG NVDC renewal notice arrived in today's mail, two mail days after the bogus one arrived from "U.S. Vessel Documentation". This whole drama would have been avoided if the arrival order of those two letters had been reversed, but I would not be the least bit

Re: Stus-List Deceitful USCG Documentation Renewal Company

pticall but the coast guard website was accurate on processing times. I got the new COD last week. it was under 100$. So it took a bit, my guess was due to request for release of PM.

Stus-List Deceitful USCG Documentation Renewal Company

Listers - fair warning - I got deceived today into paying 3X what I needed to for USCG documentation renewal. I received a letter via USPS from an entity named "U.S. Vessel Documentation", domain name uscgdocumentation.us, titled "Vessel Renewal Courtesy Notice". As I'm sure the sender
