boat registration
I have never registered a boat before so dont know much about how to do it. A buddy of mine jus gave me a boat today, its an old 16 footer. Last time it was registered was in 84. Can i still register this boat without any papers of sort or what? Jus dont know much about this, any help would be appreciated.
Might wanta call your district office.
Here's the form. They got some "frequently asked questions" too.

You'll prolly get to keep the same numbers and wait months to receive your sticker w/card 'cause they're backed up at DWFP. Keep a receipt or copy of your application. Since it's a transfer you can't do it online. Get forms at the lakes or license dealers...Stickers are good for 2 years, you get a plastic registration card eventually. Ain't like car tags they don't notify you for renewal. Got 3 different ones, and then $20 for each trailer tag annually, Shesh! Payin to play never ends!!! Taxed to death!

All you need to do, since you obviously have a computer, is
1. click on the link Denduke posted: http://www.mdwfp.com/Level2/Boating/pdf/boatregapp.pdf
2. print it out, fill in the blanks and
3. Make a copy of the bill of sale and mail it with the form.
If you don't have a bill of sale:
a. then sign an affidavit of facts (can be gotten at any MDWFP district office) or,
b. get the "seller" to sign the back of the boat registration form, you sign it and have it notarized (if you have two witness signatures, it doesn't have to be notarized).
If it got any simpler, it'd be ludicrous.
