Buying a boat in NH
Woodsy is correct... I recently purchased a NH registered boat and brought it to Massachusetts. All I needed to get the boat registered in MA was a valid registration and the bill of sale. Once I registered the boat in MA, Massachusetts, a new title was issued to me (or the lien holder)... for a "nominal" fee of course!
One thing to consider, if you're bringing the boat to Massachusetts and the deal includes a trailer, make sure you treat the boat/trailer as two separate transactions. The registrations for each of them are handled by different agencies and both will want to collect the sales tax for the transaction. So, two registrations and two bills of sale listing the price for each component.
Good Luck!
