All motor boats and airmobiles used on the waters of Maine, with Maine as the State of principal use, must be registered in Maine.
Maine reciprocally honors boat registrations form other states which have U.S. Coast Guard approved state boat registrations systems.
Registration numbers must be displayed on all motorboats. Once a motorboat has been in Maine more than 60 consecutive days after the state of principal use has changed, it is subject to Maine registration requirements.
