(1)Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, before the owner or operator of each
motorboat required to be registered and numbered by KRS 235.040 may operate it
or permit its operation upon the waters of this state, the owner shall apply for title
and registration to the county clerk of the county in which he resides, except, if the
motorboat is to be operated principally in a county other than the county of the
owner's residence the owner may apply for title and registration to the county clerk
of the county in which the motorboat is to be principally operated. A motorboat last
titled and registered in another state and purchased by a person for operation in this
state shall be first titled and registered in this state by and in the name of the
purchaser and not in the name of the seller. The application for title and registration
shall be accompanied by:
(a)A bill of sale, if the application is for registration of a new motorboat; or
(b)The owner's registration receipt if the motorboat was last registered in this
state; or
(c)A bill of sale and the previous registration receipt if last registered in another
state; and
(d)The annual registration fee.
(2)Motorboats shall be registered annually. If an application for title and registration is
filed with the county clerk prior to the annual registration date established by the
Transportation Cabinet, the registration period shall include less than twelve
consecutive months and registration fees shall be computed at a rate of one-twelfth
(1/12) of the appropriate annual registration fee set out in KRS 235.080 per month
of the remaining registration period.
