FAQ
California Required Boat Safety Equipment Life Jackets. Navigation Lights. Sound Signaling Devices. Visual Distress Signals (Coastal Waters Only):
If you want to operate a motorized vessel on California waterways, then you may be required to have a California Boater Card. The law is being phased in over 8 years, and by 2025 all boaters will be required to have a California Boater Card. So, if you're planning on boating in California, make sure you get your card!
As a general rule, you need a boater's license to drive any motorized, recreational boat — everything from a bass boat to a jet ski. There are always exceptions, of course, so check your state regulations for details. For example, if you're sailing without a motor on board, you may not need to complete the course.
California law requires a person to be 16 years of age or older and in possession of his/her California Boater Card to legally operate a vessel powered by a motor of 15 hp or more, including personal watercraft (PWCs).
California law requires children under the age of 13 to wear a USCG–approved life jacket while underway in a recreational vehicle of any length (unless tethered to a sailboat or in an enclosed cabin).
Obtain a Transfer of Ownership Form: The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) requires a Transfer of Ownership Form (Form REG 262) to be completed and signed by both the buyer and seller. You can download this form from the DMV website or pick up a copy from any DMV office.
If you decide to sell your boat/vessel, you need to: Give the Certificate of Ownership to the person who buys it. Make sure you sign the certificate on the front. Contact the DMV within five days of the sale and fill out a Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability (REG 138) form.
You may search Coast Guard Documented Vessels by their names, Hull Identification Numbers or Official Numbers via the CGMIX Coast Guard Port State Information Exchange. This search applies to US Coast Guard Documented vessels in California.
To register your boat/vessel, you will need: A completed Application for Vessel Certificate of Number (BOAT 101) form. Proof of ownership, such as the original California Certificate of Ownership (title) or the out-of-state title (if it is currently registered in another state). Applicable fees.
