Don't know about Georgia, but in Michigan a non-citizen can register a boat.
In most states drivers license bureaus register boats, you'll need a signed
title for the boat and possibly a bill of sale.

Hello,

from a previous thread, I understood that there is a difference between
documenting a boat (which is
only possible for US citizens) and registering a boat (in any state).
I have the following questions regarding registration:
- is one allowed to sail a registered (not documented) boat in US waters?
- is registration available for non-US citizens?
- where should I turn to in Georgia to register a boat (that is currently
lying in Georgia)?
- what paperwork should I produce to get a boat registered?

Tnx,
Frank
