six weeks ago I received a 1998 Bass Tracker that had been sitting in storage for 8 years. It was my Dads and my Mom unknown to me after his death moved to Geogia and put the boat in storage. Well she called me and asked if I wanted it cause she didn't want to pay for storage any more. So I went and got the boat, it was pretty shabby tires were shot batteries shot running boards shot cover shot. Alot of work ahead to get it running. But that was really the easy part. I've been running around for the last 4 weeks getting the title,registration and tags. I never knew how screwed up or government was until I tried to get a boat registered in Ohio. First I had to get the original title which still had Dads name on it changed into just Moms name so I could get it changed into mine. Well sounds easy right. Wrong, Ohio titles the boat and motor Indiana doesn't so I had to get a title for both of those which took 3 hours. Then I had to go to a differnt location to get the registration for the boat. Now for the trailer. Going to a differnt BMV to get tags for the trailer, easy right? Nope now I have to take the trailer without the boat on it and have it weighed first. Then take the weight slip to the BMV to get tags.In the mean time my boat is tied up at a dock on the river by itself while the trailer is being weighed.And they wonder why people hate their governments. All in all I had to go to 5 differnt locations and take hours off of work to get all this done. And I'm still not in the water yet!!
