Homemade boat registration?
 

How do you go about getting a homemade boat registered? It has never been registered but the person selling it doesn't have any paper work. Is it even possible?

You need to get blank application form from a regional LDWF office and complete it. If it is truly homeade, it will need to be stamped with a hull ID # to identify it if it is ever stolen. They will probably ask for a material list reciept for the boat hull to show that it was built before stamping.

Exactly what he said, you can print a form from their website, mail it to them and an officer calls you to make an appt to see the hull and go from there.

But the main problem I think is a build sheet or material list. They have no paperwork on the boat. It's a stupid cheap price is the only reason I'm interested

Call the LC office and speak to one of them.

I called and I have to have some means of it being built and proof of ownership.

Get the seller to write you an affidavit that he built it ~10 years ago or such, then get the affidavit notarized and they should take that. A new "commercially" built hull has a Certificate of Origin from the manufacture, when a boat is homemade, no such CoO exist. A notarized affidavit from the seller saying he built it will work.

Thanks for the info FFF ill do that!
