WHAT TO VERIFY BEFORE YOU COMMIT

This record is for a 2023 KNOT ENOUGH TIME. The hull is frp (fiberglass) with unspecified propulsion.

The free registration data above confirms what is on file with the state or USCG. The full history report unlocks the title chain, lien records, accident history, and open recall status for this specific HIN — the records that a visual inspection cannot surface.

WHAT TO CHECK BEFORE BUYING
  • +Physically verify the HIN on the transom matches the title and registration exactly before signing anything.
  • +Check that the secondary (hidden) HIN, usually found under a hatch or seat cushion, matches the primary.
  • +A clean title does not guarantee a clean history — boats can be salvaged and resold with clean titles in many states.
  • +Run the HIN before any deposit to check for outstanding liens, especially on documented vessels.

Common questions

MICHIGAN
BOAT OWNERSHIP IN MICHIGAN
What are the steps to register a boat in Michigan?
To register a boat in Michigan, you must complete an Application for Certificate of Number (Form REG 3945) and submit it to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources with proof of ownership and a $24 registration fee. The registration is valid for three years and you'll receive a certificate of number along with registration decals that must be displayed on your vessel. You can apply online through the Michigan DNR website or submit your application by mail.
Do I need a title for my boat in Michigan?
Yes, Michigan requires a title (Certificate of Title) for most boats, particularly those with motors. You can obtain a title by applying to the Michigan Secretary of State with the bill of sale and proof of ownership, and the title fee is typically $15. Before purchasing a used boat, it's wise to verify the title and check lien records to ensure there are no outstanding claims against the vessel.
What safety equipment is required on Michigan boats?
Michigan law requires all boats to carry at least one U.S. Coast Guard-approved personal flotation device (PFD) for each person on board, and boats 16 feet or longer must also have a throwable flotation device. Additionally, boats with enclosed cabins must have functioning ventilation systems, and vessels operating at night must display proper navigation lights. Fire extinguishers are required on motorboats with enclosed engine compartments or fuel tanks.
