Common confusion points
Confusing 'Release' with 'Cancellation': Release means lifting the hold; Cancellation might mean voiding the original order entirely.
Not knowing which court issued the restriction: The form requires you to state where the boat is currently restricted.
Thinking it applies only to commercial boats: It applies to any vessel subject to the 1959 Act's rules, including recreational ones.
Mistaking this for a license renewal application: This form deals with *status* (being held/restricted), not necessarily annual licensing.
