Also, what is the penalty for sailing it unregistered?
You definitely need to have the boat registered and the registration with the boat. I do not have a copy of the fine schedule with me, but suffice to say it would be worth several months of midnight runs to Micky D's for you!

As long as you're not hanging a motor greater than 25 hp off the stern, you do not need to have a boating certificate. And no, you do not need to carry any identification with you, it just makes life a little easier when "dealing with the man"....
