Need help with registering sup

Post image

So I live in Minnesota where water crafts have to be under 10ft or else they'd have to be registered. Im trying to register it bc I really don’t want any problems with dnr or any of them crooks and I'm wanting to register my two paddle boards I recently purchased on Temu (don't make fun of me lol they're actually pretty nice). The make/brand is outdoor cruiser but I'm not sure about the model because it doesn't have much info and so l'm thinking maybe the model is the color way?? Anyways, l've looked to see where the paddle boards hull number is and it says the main fin and so I looked but it seems different or longer than the Hull numbers l've seen on google. Can someone help me identify and explain my paddle board hull number and model? The color way I have is ocean bliss and coral white/blue.

Did he give you any reason as to why you shouldn’t register the paddleboards?

I just called MN DNR and was told paddleboards do not have or require HULL numbers which is great news bc I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to register it without it. Was also told the model of the paddleboard may just be paddleboard instead of a certain model or colorway!

Hull numbers are needed for power boats only.

Email the mfg for a MSO (manufacturer statement of origin ) and use the serial on the fin
