[Alberg30] Documentation

[Scott Maury]

So what I'm understanding is this about chartering.... I don't have to
document the boat and could bareboat charter within the state (MD) without
any other concerns other  than insurance and charter persons' competency?

  But, as far as I know, they haven't changed the law that says a boat must
be US made in order to charter. Unless I'm remembering entirely incorrectly
from when I checked about that 5 years ago.

    Scott,

    If you are chartering for hire documentation isn't required. Chartering
can
    be done on a boat registered within the state it resides. When you
document
    your boat it can be traced as mentioned in the previous e-mail and you
can
    clear Customs easier when entering a foreign port. I documented #114
last
    fall, the entire process was approx. 3 weeks.

    if you document your boat, does that mean you could charter it legally?

    Yes, you can document a boat 'later in its life' = I did it when I
purchased
    my boat. It is particularly difficult with a boat built outside the US.
It
    was a lenghty process but it is possible.

    Yes, that's true. I did it for hull #23 Ashwagh, got a complete list of
    previous owners, names and addresses and revived the boat's lapsed
    documentation. This made it unneccessary to register with any particular
    state. But I could only do this because the boat had been CG documented
by a
    previous owner. I do not know if one can document a boat later in it's
life.
    If one can, then I suppose one has to research and provide the history
of
    ownership oneself. Does anyone know the story on this?
