Default Buying a boat in the USA

Hi. I have two questions if anyone with experience in this can help.
1. Does the seller pay the broker's fee?


What broker?


2. What sort of title check do I need to do to make sure it is clear
of encumbrances? i.e. whose services do I engage?


Titled or documented?


3. If the boat is registered as a US vessel, and I am not a US
citizen, how long do I have to change this or who should I contact to
find out?


ARE YOU a US citizen?




Thanks


You are welcome
