Process of getting a New Title to a Boat
Posted on 8/20/17 at 6:43 pm

My friend has a boat that we're trying to refurbish and bring duck hunting with us in January. It has no title. It does have numbers on the front.
What are the steps I need to take to get a new title? TIA

Boats don't have titles. They have registrations. The trailer should have a title though.

It should have a Hull ID number. If the registration numbers on it now are from LA he would need a bill of sale to transfer from the previous number. I think wildlife and fisheries page has a link to use the Hull ID number to track down ownership. As stated above I don't think there are titles, maybe a certificate of origin but thats not needed to register. Go to the LA Wildlife and Fisheries page and follow the links to a registration application. There are instructions there on what is needed. I just did one from out of state and it was a fiasco getting all the signatures for the tax forms. Nothing really difficult just dealing with 3 government agencies

I've been looking on their website and I can't find a page. Baring calling them with the number, could you provide a link to the webpage you're talking about.

If you get the right person at DWF they will tell you that they are unnecessary and worthless but you can spend the money if you want to. Trailers, on the other hand, are titled by the DMV and that is way more important to get straight than anything about the boat.

ETA: OK, I've been down-voted twice, so I may be wrong. I don't think I am, but I might be.

Not true. If your boat was financed you have a title. That title will be needed for any transactions on that boat. If you look at your registration card, you will see a block that says "Title #". If it has been titled before there will be a number there. If no number, the boat hasn't been titled and one is not needed.
To answer your question you can get a replacement title from DWLF for $35 IIRC. There is a form that whoevers name is on the title need to fill it out.
