Hey fellas, just registered to the site this week. Figured I'd do an introduction, My names Stone(yes that's a real name) and I'm from central California. I found this site last week and read around for a couple hours and learned quite a bit.
I just got a used 12' foot aluminum boat, not sure what make or model. It's gonna need some work, but I got it for free so why not fix it up. I'm a noob with boats, I've never owned one before let alone fixed one up.
Anyways I have a few questions so thanks in advance. The boat I have has no HIN and the registration numbers are sanded off. So it might be older than 73, only downside to that is I want to put an engine on it... But to do that I need to register it. I have an appointment at the dmv next week, but I'm not sure what to ask them. The friend that gave it to me said he'd give me a bill of sale, but it's pretty much gonna have no identifying numbers and I doubt the dmv would transfer it like that.
what should I ask/ or do to try to figure this out? I talked to the Highway Patrol but they just told me to go to the dmv and talk to them. Any help would be fantastic, anyways.. Here's some pictures of the project!
