Some states have titles for any boat, some require just a registration card, check with your state to see what the requirement is. When I purchased my boat in WI, all I had was a Bill of Sale and the registration card, Got to Fla and they issued me a Title and Boat Registration to keep in the boat.Ok so i know when buying a boat from the topic about buying a boat if they dont have the title to walk away. but does that include aluminum fishing boats too
