Coast Guard Documentation renewal

Post by buster53 »

I got a letter in the mail telling me my documentation was due for renewal and gave me the website address to go online and renew.
The letter looked like it came from the CG and the website looked like it was CG.
I was wrong...it was a legitimate documentation service that charges $75 to renew on my behalf...something I could do on my own for $26.
Anyway, beware. If you get this letter, only go to the CG web site to renew and save yourself $50.

If you need to renew, only go to the CG web site and pay the $26.

Here's the site.

In case anyone missed this 6 months ago. Beware of a reminder letter showing up in your mail telling you to go to a website that wants $75 to renew. Only go to the CG website and do it for $26
