Hello,
I am looking to buy a boat. Can I check by some way the HIN if it is legal without any loans or thieves?
There is a boat that I am interesting to buy and the only papers that it has is Delaware flag registry, EU tax paid document and manual.
It is a 2004 boat and he bought it at 2010 and he paid the EU VAT also in the same year.
I contacted with yard but he cannot provide me absolutely nothing for over 10years old boats they said.
No previous bill of sale, no builders certificate.
The owner has some psychology health problems so we cannot contact with them to get some info.
The owner has a big law firm office and he is famous in his area so he doesn't look scammer but in any case better safe than sorry.
I have some unresolved problems. For example how can I confirm that the engines serials are from the 1st buy.
I don't have nothing about the history of the boat.
Is there a solution to confirm that the boat is 100% legal?
Any HIN search? I used a HIN search with 20$ payment but it was US legal search.
Is there something in Europe?
Delaware can provide previous bill of sale? Are they keep file?
I know that after i will buy from him with bill of sale he is 100% responsible that he boat is legal. And as he is 11 years owner and a famous lawyer of his area I think that I don't have any type of risk.
