Hi There
I am currently listing a boat shipment from Maryland to Seattle . I bought the boat from Maryland and now want to ship it to Seattle !! It will be towed across country through several states , I have clear boat and trailer titles, ( From a dealer ,used boat) The Boat and trailer is still on there lot , with a Virginia plate on it ( Previous owners , I guess ) I am from Vancouver , Canada , and can't register it until I get it here . I would be having it dropped off at a cousin's house in Seattle , I will be trailering it across the border from their myself !! ( needs to be inspected here first , ) Here in Canada , we have registration papers that we take to our auto insurance agent once a year, they give us a sticker that goes on our trailer plate , annually. When it expires , we renew. It is not transferable to the new owner if it's sold , the new owner gets a new plate and tag. We cannot drive this trailer around without a current annual sticker !! What does the U.S. do ?? I want to keep this simple. A Transporter is asking me to have a current plate on it , and registered to myself , is there not an easier way to do this ???? Please Help !!
