Default question[s] about buying boats with no titles

FWIW, CA issues titles for both boat and trailer.



Same in Illinois. and that to me is the difficult decision on buying an
out of state boat and/or trailor where a title isn't required by the
origional residential state.

I know I can check in with the IL. DMV about a trailer transer and
various state laws, but in IL we don't have a "title" to a boat/craft.
Its a "Water Conservation Certificate" issued by the Dept. of
Conservation.

Getting info from our local office is like 1) finding hens teeth, 2)
then pulling them.
