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.

ABOUT CREVALLE
Are Crevalle boats reliable?
Crevalle boats are generally known for solid construction and dependable performance in the recreational fishing market. They're built with practical design features that appeal to both experienced boaters and newcomers. Like any vessel, reliability depends heavily on maintenance history and how the boat was used by previous owners.
What are common issues with used Crevalle boats?
Common wear items on used Crevalle boats include gel coat fading, engine hour accumulation, and potential transom stress depending on age and use. Saltwater exposure can affect hardware and through-hulls if the boat wasn't properly maintained. It's worth having a pre-purchase marine survey to identify any structural or mechanical concerns.
What should I check before buying a used Crevalle?
Before purchasing, verify the boat's maintenance records and running a hull history check can help confirm the vessel's past usage and any reported incidents. Inspect the engine condition, battery systems, and all through-hull fittings for corrosion or leaks. Have a qualified marine surveyor evaluate the overall structural integrity and mechanical systems to ensure you're getting a sound investment.
BOAT OWNERSHIP IN TEXAS
What documents do I need to register a boat in Texas?
To register a boat in Texas, you'll need to submit an Application for Texas Title and/or Registration (Form 130-U), proof of ownership, a bill of sale, and proof of liability insurance. You must also provide valid identification and pay the appropriate registration and title fees based on your vessel's length and type.
How long does a Texas boat title and registration last?
Texas boat registrations are valid for one or two years, depending on the length of your vessel and the registration period you choose. Your title does not expire, but you must renew your registration annually or biennially before it lapses to avoid penalties and ensure legal operation.
What happens when I buy a used boat in Texas—do I need to transfer the title?
Yes, you must transfer the title to your name within 30 days of purchase by submitting the signed title certificate, a bill of sale, and the application form to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Before completing the purchase, it's advisable to verify the current title and any lien records through the TPWD to ensure the seller has clear ownership and no outstanding claims against the vessel.
