2B | NOVEMBER 5, 2020 | COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL Oregon Marine Board reminds boaters it’s time for registration renewal The Oregon State Ma- rine Board (OSMB) is emailing boat registra- tion renewals to boaters who have an email on file for boats with registra- tion expiring Dec. 31. Boaters without an email on file will receive a mailed Boat Registra- tion Renewal Notice the week of Nov. 9. Each renewal notice is unique to the owner and their boat. Renewing digitally us- ing the Marine Board’s Boat Oregon online store is fast and easy. After completing the trans- action, boat owners can print a temporary per- mit and go boating right away. Registrations are print- ed the next business day for mailing. Using the Boat Oregon Store is also more cost-efficient, sav- ing postage and adminis- trative costs, allowing the agency to leverage regis- tration dollars for boat- ing facility improvement projects and on-water marine law enforcement services. Fees also support the aquatic invasive species prevention and aban- doned derelict vessel programs. Another renewal op- tion is U.S. Mail. Boaters who do not have an email address on file will be mailed a registration re- newal. Simply return payment and remittance coupon in the return envelope to the Marine Board. Boat- er owners who receive an emailed registration re- newal can also print the email and mail it along with a check or money order. Any watercraft with a motor or sailboats 12 feet or longer are required to title and register with the Marine Board. Registration fees vary based on boat length. The average boat length in Oregon is 16 feet, so the cost of a two-year registration is $100.20. Remember to con- tact the Marine Board if you’ve sold your boat so staff can update the boat record. Reporting a sale is easy online. The last owner on re- cord will be contacted if a boat is deemed aban- doned or derelict and may be held liable for the removal, storage, dis- mantling, and disposal costs. Failure to report a transfer is a Class D vi- olation ($115 fine). It’s also state law that any new owner of a boat, boathouse, or floating home with valid identi- fying numbers apply for a boat title and registra- tion within 30 days (ORS 830.710 (1)(2)). 150 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE ENJOYING A NEW SHOWER IS EASIER THAN YOU THINK Cottage Grove author to ‘Shine’ with new book release Cottage Grove’s creative writing community.
