    Is there any way you have found to get a title if owner has no title? Had this situation with a foreign panga.

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’d call the DMV and see. There has to be some kind of registration. If it was a foreign boat you should be able to title it as long as there is proof it’s not stolen.

    Another thing to add I don’t think you have to call FWC for inspection unless the boat is over 16 feet

    I am buying a 17ft aluminum tunnel skiff a guy made out of his garage and I most likely will not have any receipts what do I do?

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Just show FWC some picture of the build and you should be ok. I mean nobody builds a boat and doesn’t take any pics of the progress. They are just trying to weed out any possible stolen boats.

    I just went through this for a 12ft jon boat. It's all done finally but I don't know about through HIN number plate, they didn't give me one to attach, do they send it with the title or do I need to have one made?

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I never got a HIN to attach to the boat. Just the title paperwork

      I belief the pictures they took during the inspection are attached to my registration/title in their system

    Hello! I have a v hull with the numbers messed up. No title. Or bill of sale. Was giving to me from a friend said it was a Georgia boat. So what you saying is i should just build it repaint it and then call them?

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You would need to document the rebuild so they can see you paid taxes on all your materials, then yes, you should be able to get a home built title.

    I had an old boat given to me with no title, it needs a floor and transom, pretty much a complete overhaul. It does not have any hull numbers at all. If I keep my receipts for all the glass and resin, wood etc will this process work?

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes it should. Take lots of pictures of the progress and if it doesn’t have a hull ID you should be able to retitle it as home built and they will give you a new hull ID for it along with registration.

    Is this applicable to brand new hull shells that I see for sale and need everything else to complete ??

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you buy a brand new hull shell it likely comes with a uscg placard already and you wouldn’t need to do this. Just take that info to the dmv

      Jon boats are a tough one from the research I’ve done. You might have to go dirty on that and don’t get caught haha

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Under 16’ you shouldn’t have an issue with an inspection. I’d call the number and ask how you can obtain are title for it

    What if I have a 18 rinker with bill of sale, how can I go around on doing this.?

    • @LightningCapitalLiving
      @LightningCapitalLiving  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m assuming there was no title or registration with it? If you have a bill of sale the dmv should be able to find something on file for you under the previous owners name. If not, there are processes they can walk you through to get it retitled.

      @@LightningCapitalLiving This is objectively false. It says right on FLHSMV that any boat with a motor, regardless of length, has to be registered.
