USCG Documented Boat & LDWF Registration Decal?

Anyone here have a USCG Documented boat, specifically in Louisiana? Basically just have a question about where you've placed your LDWF registration decal. According to LDWF we don't have to fly their registration numbers, but have to fly the registration decal. Did you put in on the hull in the normal spot? Put it on the console?
Currently running without anything as LDWF is crazy behind/slow, and I'm liking the hull being bare

Good to know, I'd asked a LDWF agent about the console and didn't really get a clear answer.

I bought a boat in early March ... Still no registration. They sure took my taxes though

I've called and checked a few times, something about they switched to a new computer system that put them extremely behind, when I called about 2 weeks ago they were on paperwork submitted in mid-March. So you should be close, we submitted in March as well and they just cashed the check so I'm assuming the decal will arrive any day now.
ETA: This boat was bought back in July 2025, if you think LDWF is bad, the USCG finally got us our paperwork March 2026.

I have a documented boat. LA reg. Numbers and decal is on the bow, documentation number on placard in salon.
Mine is a sailboat and it seems DWF LEO USCG usually don’t look twice.

Our just came in too. I'd called early last week to check since they'd cashed the check back in early July and nothing in the mail. Apparently the newest mess was any registration processed in late June/early July all had to be reprinted before being mailed out. Took them nearly 5 months to get the registration handled.
