Have you been looking for a better way to renew the registration for your vessel? Are you unsure exactly when (and even where) you?re supposed to renew boat registration? These kinds of questions can be frustrating. After all, if you have a documented vessel, it?s not like you can ?opt out? of deciding to renew your vessel?s documentation or something like that. It has to be done. We designed our site so that it?s easier than ever to not just renew your vessel?s documentation, but to make sure that it?s valid for a long time to come.
Why It?s Important to Renew Boat Registration at the Right Time
?I want to renew my vessel?s documentation as early as possible.? We?ve heard some version of that sentiment many times over the years. While it?s coming from the right place, you want to be careful about renewing your documentation too early. Keep in mind: your vessel’s documentation expires at the end of your ?expiration month,? which is the month in which you originally documented the vessel. If you documented your vessel in September, then you have to renew it next September. That said, if you renew it in April, then the next year after that, you?ll again have to renew it in April. Renewing it too early can be a waste of money.
How You Can Do It for Years in Advance
At our site, in just a matter of minutes, you can renew your vessel?s documentation in its ?expiration month? or whenever you would like. That said, you can also use our site to renew your vessel?s documentation for many years to come. When you renew, you?ll have the option to renew for one, two, three, four, or even five more years. Giving yourself one less thing to worry about for the next half-decade can help tremendously with your peace of mind. You?ll even have this option when you initially document your vessel, too.
What Happens if You Wait Too Long
If your vessel?s documentation expires before you renew, there is help. You aren?t just ?dead in the water,? so to speak. You can use the ?reinstatement? option at our site. There, you can get back in compliance with the powers that be. But, keep in mind – this isn?t the same as ?renewal.? if your vessel?s documentation has expired, then you have to go the ?reinstatement? route.
Renewal is Just the Beginning
If you read the last paragraph or so of this blog and felt a bit confused, that?s perfectly understandable. Vessel documentation in the United States dates back to the very first Congress, so it?s something that wasn?t exactly designed with modern-day vessel owners in mind. So, to make the process easier on vessel owners everywhere, we employ a top-notch, highly-trained staff. They?re more than qualified to answer any questions you might have, even walking you through the forms if you would like. You can message us through our site or call us.
