Buying a used vessel

WHAT TO VERIFY BEFORE YOU COMMIT

This record is for a 2003 UNDERDOG. 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

NORTH CAROLINA
BOAT OWNERSHIP IN NORTH CAROLINA
What documents do I need to register a boat in North Carolina?
To register a boat in North Carolina, you'll need a completed Application for Boat Registration (Form MVR-14), proof of ownership (bill of sale or title), proof of North Carolina residency, and payment of the registration fee. If the boat has a lien, you'll also need to provide lien holder information. It's wise to verify title and lien records through the NC Division of Motor Vehicles before submitting your application to ensure clear ownership.
Do I need to title my boat in North Carolina?
Yes, North Carolina requires titling for most boats, particularly those with motors of 10 horsepower or greater. The title serves as proof of ownership and is issued by the NC Division of Motor Vehicles along with your registration. Both the title and registration certificate must be carried on the boat at all times while operating on state waters.
What are the safety equipment requirements for boats in North Carolina?
North Carolina law requires all boats to carry Coast Guard-approved personal flotation devices (life jackets) for each person aboard, with at least one throwable device for boats 16 feet or longer. Boats must also have fire extinguishers, proper ventilation for fuel tanks, and navigation lights if operated between sunset and sunrise. Additional requirements may apply depending on your boat's size and type of engine.
