Sounds like you’re on your way but it is extremely common for people to register “homemade” trailers in this state. At least 50% of private sale ads I see for trailers seem like they say they don’t have the title.

I personally would do what a lot of people are doing now and register in Maine for a fraction of what they try to charge in “The Free State.” It’s a lot easier to do as well without the inspection racket either.

The guy in Maine that I bought the boat & trailer actually had the Bill of Sale that we signed back in August of 2017. He texted me a picture of it.

I just emailed all my docs to Clara with Maine Trailer (registration middle man company). She says I should have the tag/plate and reg by early next week. It costs a some fees for their assistance but right now in my life it is worth to me.

Feels good to be all legal with this trailer.

Glad that worked out.
