it just so I can have a easier time when going up the channel(upwind),
do I need to register it(in Calif)? thanks

----------------------------------
What Vessels Must be Registered?
Generally, every sail-powered vessel over eight feet in length 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). The vessel must be
located in California.

----------------------

As your boat will be motor-driven at times, then yes, you must register it.

Remember that Google is your friend. ;-)

Yes, you may have to register the boat. $10 for 2 years (maybe $20 now,
wife writes the checks) and the cost of a set of numbers. 8' is a cut off
point.

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

thanks Jim, I did read that paragraph before my posting. I just wanted
to know if what people really do out there. There's usually an
officially way and the real way to things...

again thanks for replying.

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! Is it
called an 8' pram, while being 8'1" long, or is it 7'11" long. You smoking
or drinking from the same well as Kevin?
