Boat Registration

[FELLOW-SHIP]

HA GUYS
THE WAY I WAS TOLD AT LEAST IN FLORIDA TO UNDERSTAND IT IS THIS WAY. (IN THE PAST) MEANING IN THE 1970’S AND ON INTO THE 80’S THE YEAR THE BOAT WAS ACTUALLY MANUFACTURED IS ON THE VIN # ON THE TRANSOM OF THE BOAT. BUT THE DATE IT WAS FIRST REGISTERED IN THE STATE COULD BE THE FOLLOWING YEAR, OR THE YEAR IT WAS FIRST SOLD. THUS THE REGISTRATION & ALSO THE TITLE OF THE BOAT COULD BE A DIFFERENT YEAR. MY GUESS IS THAT ON BOATS THAT WERE MANUFACTURED LATE IN ONE YEAR COULD SHOW THE FOLLOWING YEAR AS THE YEAR ON THE TITLE. IT WAS LIKE THINKING THAT THE BOAT WAS A NEW BOAT UNTIL IT WAS FIRST SOLD. HOPE THAT HELPS.
