title?

[tlr426]

Is there a way to check the title of the boat or registation number to see if the boat was a salvage or if it has been damaged like you can for a car? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Now keep in mind that the reporting standards and mechanisms for boats are no where near as reliable as cars, so it is hit or miss.

Your title will tell you if it is a salvage, rebuilt or recreated/ homemade title. Each state is different in how they represent this on a title. This type of title will only occur if an insurance co totaled it or someone bought a boat with out ownership transferring paper work. Now if someone bought the boat as a project there would be little to no way to determine its history. Except mechanically if they replaced a motor.
