Can TG be documented?
 
Does a 38 Top Gun meet the requirements for Coast Guard documentation?

Yes.

Absolutely you can.

Totally separate...
IF you plan to deem it as a second home for a loan interest tax write off; there are separate requirements to meet; which you may be thinking of.

It really does not take much to qualify for documentation. Better question is what does not qualify.

Not sure how you got charged that unless you went to a document service agency. Then they are taking your money. If you go to the website fill out the paper work, submit it. The initial cost was about $125.00 and then it cost 25 a year to renew. Easy to do.

In some states, like Missouri, you don't pay sales tax on a boat when documented. You pay an in lieu tax and the $450 you spend by doing using a service can save you thousands depending on the purchase price of the boat.

It doesn't cost $450 bucks. You can do it yourself, and not pay someone to do it.

There are advantages to being documented vs. state registered; but it all depends on what state you are in, and how vain you are (to want stickers on your bow or not). I tried to document my Mini-Hawk, but alas, it was too small.


Is my vessel large enough to Coast Guard document?
In basic terms, a vessel must measure in volume at a minimum of five net tons. Depending the length beam, and overall depth, most vessels will need to be at least approximately 25 feet in length to qualify. Vessel tonnage is determined by a measurement process rather than by calculating the vessel's weight or displacement.
