Jetski Registration -what is needed?
I have done a search for this info, but did not come up with much...
Can someone out there tell me what paperwork i will need to get a jetski registered in NH? Does NH require a title and/or bill of sale? (i'm coming from out of state and want to make sure i have all the necessary paperwork, so as I don't have to go back & forth) |

To register it you'll need a bill of sale with the hull number and signatures of the buyer and seller. NH doesn't title boats so you don't have to worry about that.

Question
I have my jet ski registered in NH, picked it up on Friday on a temp plate for the trailer, I live in MA, but jetski never leaves NH. Neither does the trailer and I do have my cottage in NH. I have friends that have the same type of set ups with their boats and have the trailer registered and plated in NH. Can I do the same seeing the machine is registered in NH, and use that residence? I believe I can and how do I go about doing so because the bill of sales for both the machine and trailer have my MA address on the for mailing?

When I registered my out of state jet ski, all I need was a bill of sale and a old registration from the state it came from

This creates an interesting question, why is it that you can register your boat or PWC in NH with an out of state residence but not other seasonal toys. Not really looking for an answer to that question but there was a healthy debate regarding this very same subject, but a different season of interest. |

Snowmobiles must be registered in NH to ride in NH due to reciprocity issues from many states. Same as we have to register in Maine to ride in Maine. Thank God it's not like that with boats (yet). Should be no problem registering your trailer here as long as it remains within the state most of the time. It's a non-resident registration and I don't think any town can turn you down.

I thought it went beyond sleds and included anything that requires an OHRV decal.

I guess I was not in complete understanding of how this works. Do you have a non-resident fee for the trailer plates. I have never registered my boat outside of NH, so I do not know how that works for Maine or VT. I understand the non-resident fees for the OHRV and snowmobiles, but did not know if there was a seperate system for the boats as well. I thought it was being stated that the friends were registering the boats as residents, but like I said I may be misunderstanding this, not being familar with the non-res vs resident boat registrations. Is it a seperate fee system?

Ok
Now I have an issue, because I have MA friends and family that have their boat registered in NH as well as their Trailer, they never leave the state like mine does, I should be able to register the trailer in NH as well?
They did their a couple of years ago and do not know if the rules have change. I do have a residence in NH but not my primary? So who should I contact to get the definitive answer and where do I have to go to get it registered if possible and what do I need to bring with me?

Check with your town clerk, you can register a trailer in NH even if it is not your primary residence as long as you own property in NH. They will tell you that it can not leave the state. Don't know the legality of that, you may also want to check with your insurance company regarding coverage.
