I am planning to make a purchase w/in the next year, high on the list is a CD 28. My question for today regards transfer of documentation. What is involved, costs, etc. What will BOAT/us do? Are they needed? Thanks in advance, this is a great BB.

Re: documentation
I did my own documentation using the Coast Guard website. All forms were available for downloading. I was able to email a human being at the center who answered all my questions quickly and competently. Address is:I am planning to make a purchase w/in the next year, high on the list is a CD 28.

I paid a lot of money on the other boats I've documented, but I'd never do it again. I received the document within a month of the application, which was faster than the documentation service managed it! Good luck!

Re: documentation
I agree, the process is remarkably easy - other than trying to get the form page to print properly once you have downloaded it (at least on a Macintosh).
You should not need help with documentation if your other papers are in order. It is easier than State registration in my experience - which is not surprising since the State is mainly trying to make sure it collects its piratical taxes from you and it does not know a boat from a hole in the ground.

Re: documentation
Many lenders require that the borrower utilize their documentation services (and pay the fees).

Re: documentation
it is simple to do yourself. they are actually helpful if you call on the phone - (800-799-8362) maybe because they are in the boondocks of west virginia. (smell the pork?)
cost is about $75 if i recall, there are 2 or 3 simple forms to fill out and turnaround is quick- amonth or so
just a tip-make sure the bill of sale is made out to all owners on the documentation form or you have to do another form and $5 more.
