RYA Bill of ale .... and ... Agreement for the sale and purchase of a boat

[sarabande]

I am confused ...

I am re-registering the boat on Part 1, and I have

1 the RYA Bill of Sale and
2 the RYA Agreement for Sale
3 the Registrar's form MSF

To keep it Monday Morning simple, which forms do I need to fill in please ? It's a sale to joint ownership (me and daughter) not co-ownership, as recommended by experienced forum members previously.


Also,looking through the boat's previous documentation, the price paid at one stage appears to have been £1. Is this some historical legal function and if so is it still valid ?

TIA

Probably 'yes'. When I sold my previous boat the price paid on Bill of Sale was "£1 and other consideration."

Hi,

If you're going for Part 1 registry, you will most likely need to use the latest MCA bill of sale which was revised in November 2018, After the end of February this year, the ships register is not accepting any old style bill of sale.
The current BoS form is available at this link: https://assets.publishing.service.g...ile/763143/MSF_4705_Rev_1118_Bill_of_Sale.pdf

The new form is now 4 pages, but unless you have multiple joint owners (more than you can fit on the first page) you will not need pages 3 & 4. It is best to print page 1 & 2 double sided.

If you download the BoS form to your computer, you should then be able to open the BoS Pdf, then on the right hand side you should see 'Fill & Sign', click on this and then you can click on the fields on the form and type in the correct details.

It is quite usual to use the words: One Pound and Other Considerations
Also, in the shares box, the words are: 64/64 share, All Sixty Four Shares
If there are two vendors, there should be two different witnesses, unrelated to the vendors

I hope this helps, feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Don't forget to include the third owner, please.

What if I bought the boat abroad?

Your explanation of the form is very helpful, but section 4 says "Executed as deed (England or Wales) / Subscribed (Scotland) / Signed, sealed and delivered (Northern Ireland)". I have no idea what the Dutch equivalent is.

Pretty sure this depends on your residence or home address...

My residence won't affect the situation with a foreign bill of sale.

I can put the boat on the UK part 1 registry because it is open to all UK citizens.

You are right. I have been in the same situation a few times. The financial problem is getting the boat measured for Part 1 which requires a UK measurer to fly out to the boat to measure her up specifically for Part 1 - expensive.
