VT Rocket for Randleman

title issue worries me a little, that boat wold be easy to get it to run in the 70's, it would take a little more work to get in the 80's, more work and a lot of money to get in the 90's.
 
70's is fine with me, but like you said, anytime I see a title issue, I just move on to the next ad.

BUT, I wonder if I could get by with a bill of sale switching it to NC.
 
probably could, I know NC doesn't title engines and I think boats only go with registration. Call Wildlife and ask them. Gte it figured out, get a bill of sale on it and drop it off at my shop, I'll have the motor squared away in no time
 
NC titles boats now, but not motors...I may do a little studying on this.

Big question is, if its such a nice boat, why would the owner abandon it...maybe didnt pay a repair bill?
 
boats like that don't have much appeal down here, can't do much fishing out of it. They are not the most user friendly either so there's not much market for that kind of boat. Depending on which county it was registered in, there could be property tax owed on it, but due to its age they will probably write it off.
 
I talked to my cousin, he works for DNR(SC), as far as he knows, if its not reported stolen or has a tax lean against it, all you will need is a bill of sale.
 
Spare, would the bill of sale have to come from the last registered owner, or the guy selling it because it was abandoned?
 
with in the state you will need to have a bill of sale from the last registered owner or the line of bills of sale from the last registered to the person you bought it from, then a bill of sale from that person to you. if its abandoned, you can get a conditional title, you need to call DNR to get the low down on that. If anyone has any questions about titling a boat in SC, call the office in Columbia(they are very helpful), do not call the Ft. Johnson office. Also, do not lie about it, they run across all kinds of stories, they've heard them all, the honest truth will get you much further than lie ing about it, even if its a long story. I've found the Columbia office very helpful. If its out of state, you may be able to get away with just a bill of sale, I'd call the home state DNR just to make sure its not stolen
 
Beating up!

Wonder if this could be considered "beating up" on someone. People who live in glass houses.......
