IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE RECERTIFIED, BUT BURT NEEDS TO BE INVOLVED TO REPLACE THE PLATE. WE CAN ONLY REPLACE THE PLATE ON AXXIOM VESSELS, NOT SCHMIDT VESSELS. THERE IS A LIST PRICE OF $360.00 FOR A NEW PLATE. THERE IS A FORM THAT NEEDS TO BE FILLED OUT AND SENT TO US. WE NEED SERIAL NUMBER FROM VESSEL—THERE IS A STAMP ON HANDWAY TO HELP IN THIS IF CUSTOMER/DISTRIBUTOR DOES NOT KNOW THE SERIAL NUMBER. WE CAN MAIL THE PLATE TO DISTRIBUTOR AND CUSTOMER CAN PUT ON VESSEL, BUT WE NEED PICTURES AFTER PLATE IS INSTALLED. IF WE ARE NOT SURE THAT THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING ON AXXIOM VESSEL, WE MAY HAVE TO GO TO THE SITE TO SEE THE PLATE INSTALLED ON OUR VESSEL.
