Keeping Ships Radio Licence Dry

Whats the best way to keep the Radio Licence dry, while having it on display? I can't imagine the little plastic holder it comes with is going to do the job.

Doesn't it have to be on the port side anyway? - I used the plastic thing it came with. You get a new one each year so if it fades it's easily replaced.

Send a message via Skype™ to CJL
Pop it out of the letter.

Stick it in a laminator pocket

Run it through the laminator

Cut it out leaving a 1cm border

Put it in the supplied holder

Stick to the boat.

Bob's your uncle!!
