"Sometimes a buyer will fail to register those numbers as now belonging to him for when he does it triggers

I think this was the situation with the boat I got. This is why I posted so if anyone is headed north to pick one up they will pause for a minute and be sure the paperwork is in order. This creates a pretty big gap in the chain of ownership if multiple owners skip the CA registration process. A sticky situation on an older boat like this but could be a major bummer when you start looking at newer boats with higher prices!
I am sure every state has different rules and wrinkles, I was just trying to point out the US and Canada differences. When I was trying to figure out what to do I spent lots of time searching without getting any real answers.
