I guess the buyer only need a sales contract and the shipping paperwork for customs to prove it is his boat.
How you handle the title I am not sure. May be somebody else know what you need to do with the title.

Wire transfers can't be scammed....once their funds are gone (verified in your account) they can't be pulled back or reversed... to be extra safe, set up a seperate (new) account to have the funds wired into so the other party only has account name/number for the specific transaction, then move it to your good account after the funds come in. (this is to combat giving out a good acct # for a potential fraud)

Re: oversea's scam?
I'm just curious about this, and have no intention to misdirect the thread.
What is involved in preperation of the boat for transport, in regards to HAZ/MAT items in the boat?? i.e. Fuels and fluids??
I'm sure fuel is completely drained, but what about other fluids, and MSDS's for these materials that are within the vessel?? Are these required by customs?
I deal with a lot of hazardous material Int'l shipments, but they are always air freight, and it get's sticky, and the paperwork is a bear.
What affect does this have to the boat shipment going by sea, I'm assuming, in a container, if any?
I don't want to scare anyone out of a transaction like this, it's just something I deal with in my work, and I'm curious how this would affect me shipping a piece of equipment overseas.

I sold a boat to Sweden, I agree, wire funds only to a new checking acct that you can close afterward. I got the money and it was 1-2 months before the boat was gone. The buyer did everything. It just was gone out of my garage one day.
