In my state they actually have every quick phone response for both the DNR
and the DMV. They use a rolling registration, based upon the owners
birthday, so they are never overloaded. It does make it very easy to
register.

Why don't you call DMV of California?

Ya, like calling the DMV will put you on the phone with someone who knows
the answer. That's IF you get a human on the phone.

I'd mail in the $9 and then send in the rest when, and if, they billed me
for it.

If the form says "the total due for a new registration is $9", that may
include the $5.

Here's another question. The DMV site says the total due for a new
registration is $9, but then the actual law says:

"The application shall be signed by the owner of the vessel and shall be
accompanied by a fee of nine dollars ($9), in addition to the fees
required
under subdivision (b) ..."

Subdivision (b) says:

"(b) (1) Whenever the fee for original registration of a vessel becomes
due
between January 1 and December 31 of any even-numbered year, the
application
shall be accompanied by a fee of five dollars ($5), in addition to any
other
fees that are then due and payable."

So does that mean I send in a check for $14?

Thanks again!

Hi, I'm about to register a little dink in CA and I'm looking at the PDF
"Application for Registration Number" I downloaded from the Calif DMV
web
site. A couple of the fields they want me to fill out are the CF number

and

the "sticker issued" field .. but don't THEY do that? The fields aren't

in

a different part of the application or greyed out or anything, they
don't
say "for DMV use only," they're right at the top and available to be

filled

in by Acrobat. Do I just leave those blank and let them do it? If so,

what

other fields shouldn't I fill in before mailing it to them?

Thanks very much!
