I know this has been ask before, but was wondering the best way to get a registration to a boat if all you have is a Bill of Sale.<br />Thanks in advance.

Re: Boat Registration

here in maryland, that is all you need. dnr may look up the history to be sure the seller was the last person to register it, but not a big deal. i've registered a few boats in maryland bought both in maryland and in new jersey without the registration.

Re: Boat Registration

Just wonder if a bill of sale for "Home made" would work?

Looks like this is handled at the county level in KY. Local courthouse should have the answers you don't want to hear :eek:

Re: Boat Registration

Maybe they actually make it easier, because the local (city/county) law inforcement should be capable to decide the relibility of the person, and that it may or may not be a legitamate deal. I know, that our local law enforcement would not doubt most of the residents of our county, but they know who would need closer investigation, on the legitamacy of a bill of sale, and to determine proper ownership, where as state authorities would know nothing, other than what the documents say, and they could be fake (at least in the new computer/printer/scanner age. :D :D :D :D

Yea, well this would be coming from out of state if I got it, so I had better check with the sherriff or someone beforehand.
