MMSI numbers

[Graham Nash]

Guys n Gals,

 

I dont ever remember applying for an MMSI number, but checking on the club database that I've recently been made guardian of, It would seem that I had one when I first joined 20 years ago. I did have a radio license although I have absolutely zero idea where that might be now!

 

I have however changed my boat 3 times since then and have just recently changed my radio. 

 

On setting up the new radio, it asked for my MMSI number (which I didn't realise I had) so I skipped that bit for now. 

 

Is there a way I can find out if that MMSI number is registered to me, my boat, the radio or what? 

 

Thanks in advance.

I think it is per boat, not person..... I guess you request a new one.

Graham, it is good practice to have your MMSI printed in large easy read text by your radio and your frenetic spelling of your boat name for help when you may be stressed and can't think straight.
