Registration Card

[ImpulseIII]

As some of you know I recently moved ImpulseIII from the beautiful Barnegat Bay, NJ (thinking about you Dominic :grin: ) to the Chesapeake Bay and will be keeping the boat at a marina in Maryland. I just received my annual Maryland DNR stickers for the boat but no registration card. I emailed DNR and was told that a documented boat in MD does not need a state registration card (I needed one in NJ) so....my question is does a USCG Documented boat require a state registration card if docked in Maryland? I only ask because the email response I got from the state was not all that assuring. Thanks in advance.

That's our DNR for you :smt021 Why would they be reassuring??!? I don't know whether it is required, but I did receive a registration card from the DNR and I carry on board.

Sholesben,
Is your boat USCG Documented ??

In Virginia, you do not register your boat with the state if it has USCG Documentation.

If the boat is documented you don't get a registration card. You do get the stickers to let the DNR (Department of Never-ending Revenue) police know that you've paid your MD taxes. That's all they care about.

Hey Frank....and you thought only NJ MVC was out to take your $$$$$.... looks like MD has their hands in your pockets also.... :lol:

Yeah, but Dominic, I just paid $10.00 for TWO years. :thumbsup: I think my NJ registration was $80-90 per year. :smt021 I do not miss a thing about the Garden State except my friends who still live and boat there. :smt089
