IRC Fees
The tables below list the processing fees for applications and certificate copies payable to US Sailing. Measurer fees and boat yard costs associated with the actual measurement of a boat for a certificate are separate from these. Measurers and/or boat yards will invoice the owner separately for their costs.
All fees are based on the conversion of the rated/measured METRIC Hull Length (LH) to decimal feet.
