Can someone enlighten me about the following:

In the case of a documented vessel purchased jointly (50/50) by husband
and wife - and now owned solely by the wife as a result of a divorce
settlement, which Coast Guard should be used - CG-1258, CG-1340 or CG-1270
?

If it is considered a "Transfer of Interest", then it would appear to me
that it would be sufficient to use CG-1270: Certificate of Documentation
and just have both parties sign on the reverse - have the signatures
notarized and then mail the certificate with an $8. check to the NVDC,
based on the following - Interest in vessel may be transferred by last
documented owner(s) on reverse of original Certificate of Documentation.
Original signature(s) of seller(s) must be acknowledged before a notary
public.

But perhaps that ain't so.....

Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance
Claus

The best advice would be to give them a call. They're quite helpful on the
phone.
