Well my project boat has hit a wall, I have the bill of sale from the owner of the repair shop that I bought it from (was being sold due to the owner couldn't pay) and from the info I had, and was told by my buddy, I could go to the SOS (DMV) and with the bill of sale and hull id # they would look it up and make sure everything is all good and title it in my name, well last week that did not happen, I was told I need the title or have it bonded by an insurance company. Well I spent $40 on a person search for the previous owner, left a message but never got a call back. Does anyone know any ways around this? I found on here that I could say I bought it from someone in Kansas which does not require titles for boats, is this indeed true? is there a more legit way to get a title?
