No. A documented vessel may not be titled by a state. However, some states may require documented vessels to maintain their state-level registration. Regardless of registration status, all vessel owners must comply with state laws and pay applicable state taxes.
Does a USCG documented boat have a title?
Documentation is a form of registration through the US Coast Guard. This is a title for the vessel on the national (federal) level, as opposed to state titling. The Coast Guard's National Vessel Documentation Center grants Certificates of Documentation to eligible vessels.
How do you transfer ownership of a documented vessel?
If your vessel is USCG documented, you would only need to submit a copy of the Certificate of Documentation. It has to include the signature of the owners, and the copy must be notarized. Then, state the new name and address of the new owners.
