TroutRinger Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 So I might be buying my first boat tomorrow and would like to take it to the lake this weekend. The current owner has all the titles and everything ready. What do I need to do to be legal this weekend? "Of all the liars among mankind, the fisherman is the most trustworthy." "There's a fine line between fishing and standing on the shore like an idiot."
jdmidwest Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 Since it is the first of the month, you should get in and out of the license bureau pretty fast. Otherwise, carry his stuff with you in case you get checked, I think you have 30 days to get legal after purchase. Be sure to get a bill of sale and have titles for the boat, motor, and trailer. Check Dept of Revenue website to see what all you need to take to get licensed, probably last years property tax and all of the above. You can also print out the legal bill of sale off their web too to get it signed when you purchase it.
