Boat Registration Delay?
Has anyone gotten their boat stickers from Concord in the past few weeks? With the town office and local marinas closed and the Gilford MP shack a bit far, I sent my registration checks to Concord about two weeks ago. As of today, they haven't even cashed the checks.
Has there been any word on it being OK to boat without a 2020 sticker, since the state processes seem to be bogged down? |
Same here - check was sent about 10 days ago.
No sign of it being cashed yet online. I guess if they want to slow down the roll out of people getting out on boats due to the virus - this is one way to do it... Joke |
I mailed mine to Marine Patrol they turned it in about a week. If you check their website they have instructions for those who still need to do it.

I have seen one MP boat out and about last weekend. I doubt they will be terribly lenient if you are caught unregistered. |
My town hall got it done in a couple days last week through their drop box, but I agree it probably wouldn't be much of an issue if everything else (license/boater's cert) is in order.

Got my boat stickers back in December (these were through the State). The car/trailer registration stickers arrived in the beginning of April but that went through my town (Moultonborough).
|
Sent mine in April 2...stickers arrived today April 18.

Town of Gilford was great 2 days no Problems

So here is the question of the day, on this topic. Are places like Heaths hardware in Center Harbor still able to do registrations, as a essential business they are still in operation.....
|
Quick turn-around
Dropped off renewals and a check in the Glendale drop box on the 10th.
Got a call from MP same day saying they received them and were being processed. Had my stickers in the mailbox on Tuesday the 14th Thanks MP |
Heaths Hardware is doing renewals!
|
did mine through winnisquam marine, they've got a drop box set up.
|
Finally
Registrations went to the state on April 7'th, got the stickers back on April 22. Two weeks and a day. It is what it is.
|
no problem!
I sent my boat renewals and a check to my town clerk in Moultonborough and received my new registration within a week.
|
I mailed mine just prior to the shutdown. I got it back in just a couple weeks.

E-mail your marina
I e-mailed our marina with a photo of last year's registration, or better if you have this year's, and pout a check in the mail to them. A few days later got my new registration and stickers in the mail.
|
Magna cum laude
I mailed my registrations and requests for Glendale stickers/passes to the Gilford Town Clerk on April 22. In my mailbox on Monday, April 27. An A+, magna cum laude for the Town Clerk's office.

If you are the second or third person to walk into the office you don't wait in line, someone else gets up from their desk to help you. That is far different than the experience I have had in other towns where they will act like they are doing you a favor to help you. |
New question...has anyone sent a boat registration into Concord for renewal in the last month and how quickly have you received the renewal? I mailed mine to Concord a couple of weeks ago and the check has not been cashed....I am getting worried about my launch date now.

It definitely took longer this year. I called Concord after about 3 weeks (previously I got mine back unless that 2 weeks) to make sure I hadn’t screwed up my paperwork. They told me that they were working on renewals received the week before mine was mailed and that there were issues w/slow mail delivery. Said if I didn’t receive my new registration by the following week to call back. Came the Tuesday after I called.

Like last year, I did mine at Heath's Hardware. 5 minutes. It takes the unpredictable, poor performing Post Office out of the loop.

What about new boat registrations? Is Concord the only option?

Application Bill of Sale Drivers license HIN Check for fee. I use Silver Sands for my primary (old) boat. So I’ll ask them about registering our new little RIB we got. |
we walked into the Northfield Townhall (Maskless) and did a new registration in about 15 minutes, lady behind the glass knows her business for sure!

Amazed
I'm amazed that people ask such questions on line instead of calling the local Town hall or marina. Or DMV. Relying on questionable information, based on less than full information on the internet mystifies me.
Wait until the next day's business hours and call the office. |

There is no difference between a new registration and a renewal, other than required paperwork. Both can be done at any registration site (state, town, dealer, store, etc) that does boat registrations. I usually do mine at Winnisquam Marine or Dover Marine. |
I wrote a registration check May 11, mailed it to Concord that day or next. May 21 or 22 I got the registration in the mail. That seems quite reasonable.
