Thanks to all of you for your help on this! I called the GA DNR
and told them I have a notorised BOS, so the girl on the phone
began helping me continue with the registration process. Then we
got to the part where she asked me if it was an open boat, or a
cabin, or home made, etc... I told here that I had put a roof
over it and some windows so she put me on hold for a minute, then
came back and said since I did that I would have to apply for a
new hull ID. Can anyone tell me anything about that, and why even
though it's the same hull with the same ID stamped on it I would
have to apply for a new one?

You're giving them too much information.

I have been cussing myself for that ever since I said
something.

Any chance you can go into the DNR, tell them you want to register the boat
in GA., show them the paper work and move on or is the file flagged with the
notes that a top has been added?

Really, go in and tell them you want to register a boat, if they ask
about "the other" one, tell them it was a hassle so you trashed it and
now you want to register "this" one. That is unless you already gave
them numbers off the hull or something .....
