About Our Services An overview of our vessel

Introduction - MarineTitle.com is the nation's
leading resource for U.S. Coast Guard vessel documentation and state
level boat registration services. This includes our BoatScope database, which is the most comprehensive boat record and
history search tool available to the boating public. You
will also find boat closing settlement services which are offered
through our full-service boat documentation and titling affiliate.
Self-services - Our self-service kits are the first
of their kind with respect to vessel documentation and boat titling.
These easy to use packages are immediately accessible from our web
site and contain all necessary forms, instructions, examples, and
other resources to accomplish the task at hand. They are ideal for
the economy minded and can save up to several hundred dollars in
professional service fees.
Full-Services - We are an internet based enterprise
and our products are designed exclusively for online usage. In order
to facilitate a complete range of services, we have formed an
alliance with a full-service documentation company that can offer
personalized assistance. A corresponding option is included with all of our service listings which will facilitate
full-service quotations.
Vessel Documentation - A complete range of Coast
Guard vessel documentation services can be found in our service
listings. These include initial documentation, re-documentation,
status changes, ownership transfers, certificate replacement, and
documentation removal services. All offerings are available as
economical self-service kits or you can enjoy the convenience of
full-services from our vessel documentation
company affiliate.
Preferred Mortgages - Preferred vessel mortgage and
supplemental filings are offered as stand alone services or in
conjunction with other packages. Supplemental filings consist of
mortgage amendments, assignments, assumptions, subordinations, and
release instruments. As with all of our services, these are
available in economical self-service kits or as convenient
full-services.
Lien
Clam Notices - Lien claim notifications of a
maritime nature can be filed against any vessel that is actively
documented with the U.S. Coast Guard. These include services,
supplies, and other necessaries for which payment has not been made.
Such recordings can be implemented by using one of our self-service
kits or through our full-service affiliate.
State Boat Registration - Nationwide state level registration and titling
services for all types of watercraft are available from our web site. Our self-service kits include all of the
necessary forms, instructions, links, and other resources needed to
implement such filings. Start to finish assistance by a title specialist
can also be obtained by choosing the
respective full-service option.
Title Research - Boat title and lien research is a
necessary element in some of our services. Our self-service kits
will therefore contain the applicable instructions, links, and other
resources for implementing such research. In the case of
full-services, a title specialist will conduct the necessary
research on your behalf and apply such findings as required.
Abstracts of Title - Ownership, lien, and mortgage
research on documented vessels is implemented by obtaining an
abstract of title from the U.S. Coast Guard. Our self-service kits
and full-services will accordingly address such needs when
applicable. Self-service and full-service options are also available
for vessel abstracts of title on a stand-alone basis.
Boat
Settlement Service - Boat closing settlement
services are available from our full-service vessel titling
affiliate. These are handled in such a way that the buyer's funds
are never at risk due to commingling or conversions. A title
specialist will gather up all considerations from both the buyer and
seller for exchange at the time of closing. This service can be
utilized in conjunction with other documentation and titling
services.
BoatScope Database - Our BoatScope database service
provides information on Coast Guard documented vessels and
historical data for boats which have been auctioned, stolen, salvaged, or
involved in law enforcement actions. It also contains resources for obtaining record-print outs from
every state and facilitates owner mailing lists for documented
