It's not required generally. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

If the boat is going into Europe also get them with apostille as European govts. are very keen on this when you try to register the boat with them and if a boat comes into Europe without apostille all the documents will have to be returned to the U.S. State where they were issued for that to be done.. Don't know if you are buying or selling but if you are buying it is essential to get documented proof of title and that there are no outstanding financial issues connected with the boat. |

Thanks Edgar, Buying. Europe? Not in my wildest dreams, unless it goes over as deck cargo on a freighter. (Hmmm...) Cuba, maybe, if it does open up. Otherwise just coastal US waters. The documented proof of ownership would be the CG1270? Owner would fill out the stuff on the back (like a state title) and send it back to the Coasties, who would transfer it and send it back to me. At least that's the way I read it. The current owner has a current certificate, just renewed a couple of months ago. But the real question is how to determine if there are any outstanding liens. (Great minds, Edgar!) I've been through most of the stuff here... (National Vessel Documentation Center) http://www.uscg.mil/hq/cg5/nvdc/nvdcfaq.asp#08 They can do a fax title search, but don't show anything about liens. That part has me a bit concerned. It's not a great lot of money by government standards, but it's a lot by mine. |

It's not a great lot of money by government standards, but it's a lot by mine. The Bill of Sale is your proof that you bought the boat. that document is CG-1340. However, it seems to me that the document itself is no proof that the other guy had the right to sell it to you, nor does it in itself confirm that you are not buying some debts that the boat has got hanging on it. If you use a broker then that is his job to check these things, but I do not know what the method is of doing so in USA. I would guess that the coastguard are the people to ask about this because they either do it or know how it is done. I know this because if you take a boat out of US jurisdiction as I did you can get what they call their 'gold plated' certificate of removal from US registry and they told me, when i aked about this, that they never issue such a certificate without checking that the boat has no financial ties going with it.. .. |

My insurance company didn't have a problem with just the Fed ID, so I didn't really think about it after that. Federal Documentation supercedes any other titles previously issued. It is recognized pretty much worldwide as proof of ownership, and a means of discovering liens. I am a little rusty on this, but I think that if you document a previously titled vessel, you surrender the title as part of the documentation process. |
