Wouldn't this death trap need some certification/registration?

Good point.

I have licensed home-built boats before with the water cops, but they really
don't care much about the construction. They are more interested in you
having all the required safety equipment.

I knew one kid who rigged up this home-built boat, with a crappy pulley
system, so he could steer the outboard motor from the front. He used duct
tape, coat hangers, dog rollers...it was a mess, but the marine inspectors
oked him, since he had all the safety requirements.

Sorta scary actually...
