Buying a used boat from an individual through my CU. He still owes his bank, so title will transfer from his bank to mine. Boat was recently registered thru 2017. It's a 2011 model.
The list of options and paperwork on TPWD site for boat registration is extremely complicated and confusing.
Just need to know the basics of what to do in transferring registration and ownership of boat.
Which forms and signatures will be required?
Highly confused!
Any help would be appreciated!

best thing is to take the title and seller to the TPW office and do everything there or get the info from them. don't know where there's one near Teague, but i'm sure the website can direct you. you're going to have to go there at sometime anyway.

CU should handle it

Yeah your bank should send you a certificate of title with them listed as the lien holder. AND ANOTHER FOR THE MOTOR. You take both of those plus a bill of sale to the local twps office with form 143

http://tpwd.texas.gov/fishboat/boat/owner/titles_and_registration/ And it has to be signed by the seller. One each for boat and motor.

Take your check book, she'll take your tax money there.

Then register the trailer with dps form 130-u and Mail it in with a check.

Thanks guys! Appreciate the input!

If you are financing it thru your credit union, they should be taking care of all the paperwork to include TPWD and DMV for trailer...

They should have you come in and sign some forms, but other than that, it should all be up to them.
