USCG registration question

[sepharad]

I will request a closed transcript. Thank you.

Email Cardiff and provide a scan of your bill of sale , there is a charge

part1.registry@mcga.gov.uk

They will send you a scan within 48 hours and mail out an official transcript thereafter

There are many threads on this issue. Your bill of sale will need an apostile or notarization.
The apostille is particular to ex-us purchases.

Search the forum for that word and you will find the threads.
There is also a lot of speculation and noise in the threads. Pay attention to the posters who have actually USCG documented a boat that was in foreign registry.
Good luck.
The NVDC is helpful.
I used a documentation service to do this for me. It cost 600USD a few years back. Worth it.

Make sure you are using an up to date version of Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you are using a browser based reader, or the preview app on a Mac, it probably won't work.

Pre-covid, when I emailed them they got back to me the same day. When I called them, a knowledgeable person answered the phone, with no voicemail or hold times.
