Standard form for Offer to Purchase?

[Tom]

Does anyone know of a standard form for an Offer to Purchase a used boat from an individual? I've seen standard forms for real estate, and I wonder if such a thing exists for boats. If a broker was involved he/she would presumably provide one, but this is buyer/seller only.Thanks in advance.

It's called a Purchase Agreement...

I've never seen a standard form, but I'll be glad to send you a copy of the one I drew up when I sold my boat if you'd like to e-mail me. I'm in the directory.

Bill of Sale

Go to your local office supply store and get a standard "Bill of Sale". Fill in the blanks. Attached additional pages if needed (like to list included other equipment such as those 3 extra jibs, foul weather gear, assorted blocks, pins etc etc.) You get the picture.

Purchase

You can write an agreement on a dirty hankerchief,it is only as good as the two people invovled.The FBI cant even get Mcviegh with all there nonsense.You dont even need a regular form to register the boat. Just say as is and make it a fire job to lower the state taxId say more but it could get me involved.

Check out the Coast Guard's site, as they have a purchase agreement form that we've used before. It should be in PDF format and prints quite nicely. And FREE!LaDonna

As stated before, the Coast Guard has a great site for the standard purchase agreement (accepted if you need a mortgage on vessel), as well as forms for documentation, should you desire. Check it out at the link listed below.
