Hawaii Boat Registration

After purchase, new boat owners must submit an Application for Vessel Registration and/or Title within 20 days of ownership transfer.[1]

Nearly all motorized boats must be registered in Hawaii. Notable exceptions include sailboats under 8 feet long, motorboats with engines producing less than five horsepower, and racing motorboats.[2] All undocumented vessels must be titled with the Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation (DOBOR).[3]

Registration, titling, and ownership transfers must be done in person at the nearest DOBOR Office.[4] Boat owners will need to complete the Application for Vessel Registration and/or Title, bring the signed over title, and pay applicable titling and registration fees.
