hi all,

I've a 8 ft sailing dingy and if I put a 30 lb thrust electric motor
on
it just so I can have a easier time when going up the channel(upwind),
do I need to register it(in Calif)? thanks

Yes, you may have to register the boat.

Yes, you *may* have to register the boat? What kind of answer is that
Billy boy?


Is an answer that says he may have to register the boat as it is on the
cusp. Contact the DMV and they will answer the question for him!

Yep. It is powered and therefore requires registration.

I don't even live in LaLa land and know that.

Hey Bill........bite me.

No, but it looks like you have as I guess you missed this part:

"..........and every motor-driven vessel (regardless of length) that is not
documented by the
U.S. Coast Guard which is used or on the waters of this state are subject to
registration by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)."

I thought the criteria just about everywhere was "motor driven."

Something about sailboats and 8'.

's o' originally asked:

"I've a 8 ft sailing dingy and if I put a 30 lb thrust electric motor on
it just so I can have a easier time when going up the channel(upwind),
do I need to register it(in Calif)? "

Bill......what is it that you do not understand about the requirement to
register motor driven boats in California?
