The Bundesrepublik Deutschland Wasser- und Schifffahrtsverwaltung (German Coast Guard?) and Deutsche Wasserschutzpolizei (German River, Lake, and Coastal Waters Police?) just declared our boat as sea worthy!!!
Yahoooooo! Yippieeee!
I am now the legal owner, of a previously, never registered, home built boat!
The little boat is not finished (almost), but it is now legal!
I jumped the gun a little.
I got worried that all the work would be for nothing, so I ran it though their system to see if we would pass.
My rebuild/new build was accepted as professionally undertaken!
I used Coast Guard formulas to do the math and it worked.
It is now rated for up to 35hp! Way over what I thought it should be for a 10ft boat.
Maximum passengers, three adults, or two adults and two children.
It passed as a “new”, not a “rebuilt”, boat!
Our boat now has a new legal registration number and hull number!
