Buying a boat overseas


Guest

Recommended Posts

I bought my boat in Hawaii.  Although I spent 3 months up there getting it seaworthy enough for the trip home, I left Hawaii without any valid paperwork.  At the time it took the Seppos 6 months to cancel the registration, and I could not register in NZ until that was done.  I explained the situation to the relevant officials on the trip home (Fanning Island, Tonga and NZ) and had zero problems.  Maybe it was my honest face.  Anyway, I have a sneaking suspicion that all this concern over registration could be overdone, I was able to produce the notarised Bill Of Sale and that seemed to help.
