Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

What's a water allocation? I'm guessing something to do with farming?

But yes, the bureaucracy in South Australia is astounding. I really notice it when I come back from interstate visits.

Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

Can't speak for other states, and I guess I am soon to find out, but South Australia accepted my AMSA issued Official Number (O.N.) in lieu of a HIN, although it took them a few inter departmental...

Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

Can’t speak for QLD, but South Australia is still reasonably relaxed and friendly. A bit odd that the rego cost is so high though. It makes sense in QLD, although peter57 has noted some trouble in...

Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

Yes. It’s pretty steep. In fairness, less than QLD and WA, but in QLD at least there’s lots of boating infrastructure at your disposal. Can’t speak for WA, don’t know it well enough.

But I...

Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

I am a chronic over thinker but it has the advantage that I am rarely caught out needing to make a decision on the hop. So when I pack up the show and sail out of this place in November I’ll have a...

Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

Hopefully it will never matter to me, but where are you supposed to put the sticker on a QLD registered boat?

I put mine on the the port aft deckhouse window because you can see it from the helm...

Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

Thank you, good tip.

Yes, I think I am about 99% electronic already, but, in one of those supreme bits of irony, the South Australian system still sends registration labels for boats in the...

Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

Thank you for that link. You are right, not cheap, but not unreasonable either.

Frankly, paying them $200 year might be better for my mental health than trying to coach dad through scanning a...

I want to enjoy my life of freedom on the water without dreading the next pen pushing turnip with a sense of authority.

Re: Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

The whole lot used...

Australian AMSA registered boat, which State registration to complement it?

Hi all,
