Buying a used vessel

WHAT TO VERIFY BEFORE YOU COMMIT

This record is for a 2007 VALENTINA. 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

MONTANA
BOAT OWNERSHIP IN MONTANA
Do I need to register my boat with the state of Montana?
Yes, Montana requires registration for all motorized vessels and sailboats over 12 feet in length used on public waters. You must register your boat with the Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks Department, and registration must be renewed annually. The registration certificate serves as proof of ownership and is required to legally operate your vessel in Montana.
What documents do I need to title and register a boat I just purchased in Montana?
You'll need the bill of sale, a completed Application for Certificate of Number (Form FWP 406), proof of ownership, and a valid photo ID. If the boat has a lien or mortgage, you should verify title and lien records with the seller to ensure a clean transfer. Once submitted to Fish, Wildlife & Parks with the appropriate fees, you'll receive your registration and certificate of number.
What are Montana's boating safety requirements for operators?
Montana requires anyone born on or after January 1, 1989, to complete a boating safety course and carry a Boating Safety Certificate when operating a motorized vessel. All boats must have proper life jackets for each passenger, a fire extinguisher if equipped with an engine, and proper navigation lights if operated at night. Additionally, operators must follow all state and federal boating laws regarding speed limits and water safety zones.
