I recently purchased a 45 foot
ketch from some good people who live in the
Bahamas. They are American. The
boat has been in the
Bahamas for some time now. My question is, will a simple bill of
sale and
registration in the Bahamas be sufficient to show
ownership?
The
boat is a 1979 model. Should I get a title of
ownership or will the
registration in my name be sufficient? I know it is different in the states vs the Bahamas. And will the coast guard in the states be fine with a Bahamian registration card? It is registered in the Bahamas.
What if I want to sell it at a later date? Will it be a problem without a "Title"?
Thanks for your input!!!!
