Call me "cheap" - well, you will after you read this... I have every intention of registering my small (17.5' ) MacGregor daysailer, and of course tag and reg. for the trailer, etc. But, frankly, would like very much to spend an hour actually on the water to establish that A: the boat actually floats. B: The rigging functions and C: the trailer functions normally, etc.
Worse case scenario - Assuming all purchase/title paperwork is with me - would a law officer (Florida Marine Patrol, etc.) come down hard on a person out for a shakedown outing???
Any related experiences come to mind? Thanks in advance for advice.
