My boat is documented w USCG. The initial doc fee was $80 to change the owner's name and hailing port, than the annual renewal is free. Here in NJ, I have to renew state registration each year and pay that fee, but I don't have to display the state numbers on the bow. Asthetics.

I thought USCG documentation (as opposed to merely state registration) is mostly only beneficial to those traveling internationally. (and not everyone commenting travels internationally). So if you don't travel outside of the US and Canada, what motivated you to go USCG documented? There's a small fee savings sometimes (USCG fee is one-time while state is annual), but not much - USCG documentation doesn't exempt you from state excise taxes (if any). And Washington state requires state registration even if you're USCG documented, except for exempt vessels (mainly commercial vessels). So no fee savings for Washington. -Patrick C&C LF38 Seattle, WA _______________________________________________ Email address: CnC-List@cnc-list.com To change your list preferences, including unsubscribing -- go to the bottom of page at: http://cnc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/cnc-list_cnc-list.com
