I guess because it's not visible in the pictures!

Sure it is, put your glasses on.

When you see something in that area you know it's a Sunseeker as they are one of very few manufacturers that put their name in that location.

To be fair, the pictures the OP posted showed no legible writing in the area where a subsequent poster later showed an image of a Predator 62 with the writing present at port aft waterline. In fact I'm not sure that the yacht in question actually has the writing in that location (I don't see any writing in the OP's pictures in that area) so it didn't help me any. I went through every yacht in the 50-80 ft range from both Pershing and Azimut from 2000 to 2017, and when unsuccessful, I then started doing some google search terms including "three vertical" and "twin radar". Took quite a while. I didn't think to try Google Image search. Old fashioned 'don't quit' did the trick.

I got you, you want to have it legible and perfectly clear to read.

I blew up OP's second pic and you can see that there's something there.

There may be something there, Mon, but you can't make out any detail, such as a name. Try blowing up the first pic. Maybe you can see a name there.

I know that God and like I said earlier Only Sunseeker and a few more have a name there.

I know it's not a Mainship Mediteranian so it wasn't too hard to figure out, at least not for me.

Crazy how that happens, isn't it?

Imagine if they all went "home" at the same time.

Correct Mon. Also need the vessels official documentation number displayed down below. As you know there are companies that make up nice varnished and composite boards with the number engraved on it that you can affix somewhere below.

I didn't know that Dan.

I always had the documents on board in case I got pulled over.
