Hi. We are thinking of buying a boat in the St Tropez area. I enquired of the owner for the list of paperwork that YYA recommended. He says he doesn't have the VAT receipt and I'm not sure what he considers ownership docs. The boat is 2003 and he has had it since July 2011.
We plan to register it SSR after. That seemed simple enough but maybe not so much now....
Ward-McKenzie have a service whereby they help with stuff like this, but if the paperwork doesn't exist it doesn't exist I guess so W-M probably can't 'source' it either? What to do? Sellers reply below.
We want the boat mostly as we want the berth and its the kind of boat we were going to buy in the UK anyway. Sold together.
If we convert to SSR we still need these docs?
Pour les papiers j'ai le certificat de navigation seul document nécessaire en france, avec les anciens propriétaires inscrits et le droit de navigation payé chaque année. J'ai toutes les factures depuis je crois 2009 et le contrat signé pour la place de port ainsi que le livret du bateau et du moteur Steyr. Par contre je n'ai rien concernant la TVA lors de l'achat initial. Concernant l'absence d'hypotheque, je me renseignerai pour savoir s'il existe un document officiel
