If Family member A wants to transfer ownership of a vessel to family member B, what is required? Is a bill of sale required being no money is changing hands? What is required when family member B goes to register vessel?

sign over the title and put in $0 on sale price. bill of sale stating it as a family member to member gift will also help..

pay the title and reg fees and your are set (you only get away with not paying sales taxes)

I've always just put $1 in the bill sale. That's what I've always been told to do. When you go to make the title transfer just tell them it was a gift. It's always worked for me and I've never had an issue. This was for cars by the way but the registration process is the same I believe.
