I recently started putting together the paperwork to order our insurance, fishing and boat permits and ran into a major problem. Seems the wife
switched the title to her father (I won't even get into why.) I emailed the in-laws to get the title returned and, as usual, they mis-understood and
sent the registration alone. The result is that I will likely NOT be able to get the boat put back into my name before we leave. Without the boat in
my name, I cannot get a boat permit.
Any idea what the penalty might be if we are caught without the permit ? I am soooo pi**ed off ! I DO NOT want to go to Baja without a boat. I may
really pee off the wife and go buy a new one in MY name tomorrow !!

IF that is all they will do, they can HAVE the boat !!
Problem is, then I would be stuck down there with no boat and stuck buying another one in La Paz.
Cr*p !! What to do ??

I will be truck-topping the 14 footer so I'm only worried about being nailed when I am using the boat or it's on the beach.

there's a form in california that will give you "power of attorney" for things done when changing title with the DMV
don't EVER thing the DMV keeps all those registration papers in a DMV building somewhere
that building would be the size of washington by nowDiver - 12-2-2006 at 07:01 AM

if you end up taking your unregestered boat to baja i would go to the port captain and ask to import it and see what he can do for you it changes all
the time but he gave me a letter for a temporary permit for 90 days
ps this stuff changes all the time bring all the info you have as well as a bill of sale and old registrationdoradodan - 12-2-2006 at 10:35 AM
