If you need to find out who is on the title for a boat, you will need to gather certain identifying information from the vessel. In instances where you have been in a boating accident and the other boater sped away, you may be able to identify the boat by its name and port of hail. Keep in mind that many jurisdictions do not disclose title information about boat owners in order to protect people's privacy, but if you have an accident report or a pending lawsuit where the information is privy to discovery, you may be entitled to the information.

Enter the boat into the Coast Guard-documented database. If the boat is registered with a state, skip to Step 4. If the boat is documented with the Coast Guard, log online and visit the Office of Science and Technology's copy of the Coast Guard's database of all vessels by name. Enter the name and port of hail as prompted and the site will return the title owner's information. [links]

Check the boat's registration. Look on either side of the bow for a registration sticker. This will tell you if the boat is documented with the Coast Guard or if it is registered with the state. The sticker is usually a small square or rectangle.

Bay boats don’t exactly come cheap, with some models going for $120,000 and up. Nonetheless, it is possible to get a shiny new boat for under $40,000. You just need to know where to look. here

The interior looks sleek and comes outfitted with a 15-gallon Livewell both at the fore and aft decks, removable bow cushions, aft jump seats, drink holders, grab rails, rod holders, an insulated fish box with an overboard drain, LED courtesy lights, and lots more. here

When choosing the best bay boats, ensure that the manufacturer in question has a stellar reputation for high quality and excellence. That way, you know that the boat you buy will last you several years to come.

Some are even designed for water sports, like skiing and tubing.

Its prominent bow, hull design, and 13-inch draft make it perfect for backwater fishing, as well as cutting through choppy offshore waves without getting you wet in the process.

In order to get a handle on this fast-growing group of water wagons--to catch the tiger by the tail, so to speak--we gathered four new catamarans and put them through their paces. Although all four are nominally set up for fishing, we found very different boats that together are ready for almost anything.

We hit the first wave at about 25 mph. The bow rose so high that only a cloud-scattered expanse of blue Florida sky was visible beyond the rail. As we hung in the air, I told myself: You should have backed off the throttle while you had the chance--moron.

Along with handsome blue hulls and nonskid decks, the Comet offers topnotch fit and finish. There's plenty of stowage space and recirculating live and release wells. The helm console has enough room for dash-mounted add-on electronics and is easy to reach from the comfortable bench seat. more

With its cuddy cabin and walkaround helm, the company's new World Cat 266 SC is the queen of that line. And the best compliment we can pay it is to say that it seems like a larger boat, both in terms of its amenities and ride.

While the boat is set up for fishing, with fish boxes, live wells and rod holders, it makes a good all-around craft. It features quality components and is well-constructed. Still, its best attribute clearly is the ride. As one dealer aptly sums it up: "You just can't get in trouble in this boat." here

SeaCat's owner retired last year, and the new owners renamed the company World Class Catamaran and redesigned the entire line.

Six Maryland men were rescued about 60 miles offshore of Chincoteague Monday during the White Marlin Open after their boat took on water and sank, according to multiple reports citing White Marlin Open officials and a Coast Guard spokesperson.

An 8-minute video posted on YouTube shows the six men on a red inflatable raft paddling toward the boat Fishbone, whose crew helped rescue the group as debris floated between the vessel and the sinking boat called Knot Stressin’. A Facebook post by the White Marlin Open confirmed that some anglers abandoned ship about 60 miles offshore and that everyone is safe, though it’s unclear what caused the boat to sink.

The boat was taking on water before a good Samaritan instrumented the rescue of the six onboard at 10:30 a.m., according to the Coast Guard. more

According to WBOC-TV, two of the rescued men are from Pasadena, one is from Severna Park and two are from the Eastern Shore. The Coast Guard could not confirm some of the men were from Anne Arundel County.
