Boat Registration Question ?

bigdog · 07-30-2010, 03:00 PM

Hello.....

I just purchased a late model Sunfish sailboat. It does not have a 'HIN'
(Hull Identification Number), anywhere to be found. Doesn't seem to exist on boat or was removed ? Boat was purchased in R.I. No title is required in R.I. for this type of boat. Was used in salt water around Narragansett.

That being said, will I have a problem Registering the boat in N.H.
I have a 'bill of sale' form the Seller.

Sunfish is 14', so according to NH boating laws, Registration is required,
for any watercraft over 12'.

Thanks for your feedback, much apprecaited !
