I've reported something similar in one or more prior years ...
Just opened an envelope with 'Vessel Documentation Portal' in the upper left corner and also on the letter inside. They're trying to convince me our vessel documentation is about to expire, and that I should renew through them. This is NOT the US Coast Guard National Vessel Documentation Center. These scam artists try to get unsuspecting vessel owners to use their "service" to renew documentation for an inflated fee.
In addition to their name, the other clue is that our vessel documentation doesn't expire until January 31, 2020.
Don't fall for this scam, and only deal directly with USCG National Vessel Documentation Center in Falling Waters, WV.
