Support maritime education, training, and careers across Florida. Help us reach 3,000 vouchers to bring the Boating Capital of the World license plate to production.
The Boating Capital of the World specialty license plate funds maritime employment, job training, education, and environmental education across Florida. We need 3,000 voucher reservations from Florida plate holders to bring it to production.
Florida requires 3,000 registered voucher reservations from FL plate holders before the plate can be produced. It's not just about funding — real Florida plate holders must register to make this happen.
Proceeds directly fund maritime employment, job training, education, and environmental education programs.
