TK, thanks for your reply. I haven't called you because I'm deaf and it can sometimes be difficult for me to speak on the phone, especially with someone I've never spoken with before.
I live in Rutherford county, so I went to the county clerk's office in Smyrna to get some info on their requirements. They said that they do indeed require a notarized bill of sale. The problem for me is that the person I'm purchasing the boat from is in Wisconsin. He is bringing the boat down in the beginning of March while he is passing through on his way to visit his son in South Carolina. He will be coming through on a weekend, so obviously, the county clerk's office isn't open on those days. Is there anyone else that we can go to in order to get the bill of sale notarized?
Also, once I get all of this straightened out, can I take the application for the boat registration to a twra office and get the registration office? If not, how long does it typically take to arrive in the mail? The reason why I asked is because my parents are coming down for a visit in the middle of March, and I'd like to have the boat available if possible.
Thanks,
Jamie
