Reply to: Need information about a Hobie 21 Sport Cruiser in Florida

[quote=bradinjax][quote]you have legal options for title: in fl you can petition the court for around $300 and they will do a background check on it if your story is sound and you can trace some of the history, as long as it's not stolen, you should be awarded a title This is from a conversation i just had with another forum member "go to the Clerk of the Court and get a declaratory judgement to get a title. Basically you fill out a form to sue the DMV for a new title and pay a fee ($US310 in Leon County but it varies). The DMV then has to respond and if everything is on the up and up the judge will declare the DMV has to give you a title. "[/quote] I have gone through this process twice in Florida pretty much exactly as described. Once in St Johns County about 15 years ago and it took 6-8 weeks. Once in Duval County about 2 years ago and it took about 6 months. Possible Plan B: My neighbor bought a boat at an auction supposedly with a title but at the end of the day no title was ever produced. The auction house helped him in getting a title by making a title application in another state (maybe Alabama or Louisiana?) then transferred the title to FL. The auction house said getting FL titles was expensive and lengthy and other states were much easier. I know that does not solve the legitimate ownership question in your case but at some point you have exhausted all your options. Good luck and keep us posted please. Brad 2x Stiletto 27's[/quote]
