Big news! I have a new deadline: 8am on Thursday, August 9th, 2007 (boat builders must use the year in all their dates, sometimes we're that far behind!) I will meet with Ranger Dan of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Watercraft Division and he will inspect my hull.
They requested:
- Photos of the construction process
- Plans
- Receipts (showing Ohio sales tax paid)
- the hull only (not interested in the sail or mast)
- ODNR's "Watercraft Affidavit of Ownership" (form DNR 8460)
I am also bringing a letter as a "Builder's Statement of Origin" and form CG-1261 ("Builder's Certification and First Transfer of Title") but Dan says that neither are needed.
Oh, and my driver's license and my checkbook. Yeah, can't forget the fees.
As far as the hull goes, all it really needs is the coamings, the deck hardware and paint now. Dan said not to worry about that. Just needs to see the hull.
