I agree, that seems like a big ask.

Ends up.

Good luck!
There are only two seasons in Vermont: boating season, and boat-building season.

Great success! After 30 mins and a couple trips of the clerk consulting with the supervisor, I have a HIN, title, and registration!

Awesome Cameron! Do you mind expounding on what info you had to provide?

Yeah so it was pretty straight forward.

I filled out HSMV 87002 and brought my reciepts. Basically they want the HULL, DECKS/RIGGING, and MACHINERY/ENGINES filled out to correlate with the vendors of the reciepts you've brought. Basically all the receipts prove is you paid tax on the materials that you claim went into the fabrication of the hull. I didn't have to submit it to FWC for inspection because it is under 16ft. No photos had to be provided.

I did leave engine blank and stated that I haven't decided on a motor yet. I have one, but I've been on the lookout for a newer (than 1996) model 2 stroke Yamaha. They questioned me on that a bit because they said they could not proceed without knowing the engine type and fuel. I said that it would most definitely be a gas outboard and there was no way it could be anything else. They accepted that and moved forward.

The guidance states to bring HSMV 82040 as well, and I did, but they did not use my copy because they already have the necessary info from the first form.

All in all it was pretty straight forward. This was in Orange County, FL, so of course your mileage may vary.

Dang - that looks like a boat and a pretty nice one at that. Must feel really good to see it all coming together. Did you figure out your two-tone transitions or are you going to stay with one color?

I have a plan for two-tone. We'll see how it plays out in the coming weeks.
