On a new Gulet, the Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin certifies that it has had no other retail owner. With used boats, lenders check for a clear title or record of ownership. In addition, information about pending liens or unpaid debts may be recorded in the county court where the boat is kept or where the owner resides.
Basic marine insurance includes Hull Coverage for damages to the boat whether it is on land or in the water.
