Re: help registering a boat?
Exactly. REMEMBER- It MUST BE notarized.
BTW- did "friend" ever have it registered?

For example: I, blah blah, sold my 1996 Sears 12ft aluminium johnboat, model # blah blah, serial # blah blah, to john d for the price of $1. Signed, blah blah. And it must be an official ink signature, no copies. Notorized by blah blah on this date, blah blah....
Good luck, I almost gave up after 5 trips but be persistent and it'll get done. And its worth it!!
