Reply to: Buying out of state

[quote=JohnES]In California: Boats - anything over 8' will need a registration and a title.... all you will need is the title signed by the current owner.... If the boat is being sold as a bailment sale, then you'll need to get a bill of sale... Be sure to use the official CA form for this... it will make things a lot easier when you take it get registered.. https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/wcm/connect/b04d574c-a959-4160-953b-faf62a66cd3a/reg135.pdf?MOD=AJPERES Sometimes owner will lose the paperwork, and it if is older that ten years it may fall out of the system. This was the situation with the Prindle 18 I bought a while back... not an issue is you use the "official" paper work plus I had a affidavit form the previous owner stating the facts. Trailers - there are two routs in California for this; PTI which is basically a registration that is good for five years.. this does not require a title.. Or a title along with the PTI sticker... I go with the title as it make transferring the ownership so much easier... With the PTI again you'll need the Bill of Sale, the PTI registration, and it wouldn't hurt to get a release of liability form from the current owner.. https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/wcm/connect/503960c5-6d95-4e5f-b123-3f584e16c012/reg138.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CONVERT_TO=url&CACHEID=503960c5-6d95-4e5f-b123-3f584e16c012<!-- editby --><em>Edited by JohnES on Mar 10, 2018 - 12:24 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
