“boatfax SmartSearch™” carries out a search against contiguous sequences of information entered and tries to match this against corresponding sequences of information in the database. If you have some information but cannot be sure of it, then this method will try to get the best result from the information provided. If a boat is stolen, it is possible some, but not all, of the information has been changed, therefore this process will utilise all that is provided to attempt a database match.
