Hory Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Does anyone know the process for registering a boat trailer or if it needs to be done when purchasing a new boat from out of state? I bought a small boat and trailer from someone in MN, and will be using the rig in WI. The trailer had a lifetime liscense in MN. Thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine_man Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 I'm not sure what's required... I think it's as straight forward as taking the trailer title card to the licensing place in WI and they'll get you fixed up.marine_man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valv Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I believe WI has no registration for trailers under 3000lbs, so you need to do nothing, besides removing the MN stickers, but a quick visit to your DMV office will clear the situation.
