Hi. My son bought a boat from his uncle, who has questionable
ethics.

One would have to question the ethics of anyone who would knowingly
do business with someone with questionable ethics, or allow
their children to do business with such a person.

This year when my son went to register the boat he discovered that
the number on the boat certificate did not match the number on the
boat itself. The uncle said he bought it from another guy, and never
got around to changing the title. Everything else on the certificate
is correct, the make and length and such. Is there any way to
resolve the problem? Can he file for a lost title? We live in
Texas. I guess my main fear is that the boat was stolen,

Call the police then.

but if thats the case
how did my brother in law obtain the certificate of number?

Not your concern.

Maybe it
was in the boat? Would you call the person whose name is on the
certificate and find out if the sale really took place?

Call 911.


Thanks for any help.
