Trisstan,
Quick list:
a. Survey (paid to surveyor)
b. Quick haul for survey haul out (paid to marina).
c. Engine and/or
rigging survey -- something to consider if vessel is a little long in the tooth.
d. State sales tax.
e. State registration.
f. USCG documentation (if required by lender or you elect to have it documented.)
g. FCC Ship's Station License (if vessel is equipped with an
SSB.)
h. Insurance.
Can anyone think of anything else I've missed?
