Thanks for the quick replies!


This guy has had the boat for around 7 years he says. Says that the sails are in storage and the boat has been sitting outside storage for a while. He said that I might want to replace the tires on the trailer, and he said the tramp might need some patching.

Concerning the trailer, what exactly is needed to make it road legal? Do they require plates? Registration? Is it a state by state thing? What about the boat? Should there be a title or something? Does it need to be registered in the state I sail it in?



The paperwork varies from state to state. Check what is required in your current state, and try to get copies of what he has that satisfy those requirements. If your current state requires a title, get the title (trailer and/or boat), etc.. Check your new state for what it requires. There are usually variances made for out of state vehicles coming in, but you may need the correct pile of papers for the previous state to make the transition. That goes for the boat as well as the trailer. Some states are lenient, others not so much.
