[Rhodes22-list] ? 4 Captain Michael D. Weisner or any New York sailor

Fri Sep 1 14:33:41 EDT 2006

In NY, boat registration is performed by the NY State Dept of Motor Vehicles (NYSDMV).  The sticker on the bow of the R22 as well as the registration numbers show that the boat was registered until 2006 in NY.

To answer your question about titles see http://www.nysdmv.com/dmvfaqs.htm#BOATS:
  The DMV issues title certificates for boats that are:
    a.. model year 1987 and newer,
    b.. at least 14 ft. long, and
    c.. registered in New York State.
  The title certificate is used for proof of ownership for these boats instead of the registration.Title certificates are not issued for boats that do not match the description above or for boats registered with the Coast Guard.  For a boat that does not receive a title certificate, the transferable registration is proof of ownership.

Since this is a '82, no title was issued or is required, in NY.
