Default Using out of state boat in Ohio-registration?

Yeah I am going to give it a shot and see what happens. I figure they will
just give me a ticket,i dont think they can take the boat away.

Thats 60 days consecutive,once they catch you the first time. So if i get
stopped tomorrow,i have until july ot get an OH number. I want to use the
boat here until october when the season ends.




Florida has a similar 60 day consecutive use law for out of state
registered or federally documented boats. When we had a winter house
there and I had both a documented boat and a MA registered smaller boat, I
was advised by the "locals" in the know to simply take them out of state
every three months for a day, fuel them, take a picture at the gas station
or otherwise get proof that the boat was not in Florida, return and the 60
day countdown started over again.

Never bothered, and never was bothered either.
