Ive Found A Boat!!!
So today my dad approaches me about a job. and he says that a realtor wants me to take care of the lawn of the house across the street. i went to the house today to mow the lawn. And so they are going to remodel the home and try to sell it. Well i trot across the street to begin, and i swing around back and i see this fiberglass box looking thing sticking out from behind the side of the house, i walk around the house and its a 10 Ft. Gamefisher Fiberglass boat...in dang good condition! so i finish the yard thinking about my new found treasure and when the realtor came later to give me a check for the work...i figured id ask him about it...he said he had no idea about it being there and the family had moved to ohio! ,and if i had a place to store it, then it was all mine! so tommorrow im gonna try and take it across the street and put it in my backyard...itll be my new project...but theres not much to work on cause its in excellent condition! ima try to take pictures of it too and get em on here as soon as i can!

Hey LoneStar you need to do a few things first before you take that boat out. Provided laws are the same in Texas as they are in WV.(I imagine there similar) You'll have to get the boat registered in your name and have a registration number and sticker assigned to it. The best thing to do is contact your wildlife division or possibly the motor vehicle division and ask them what procedures have to be taken. Also get a copy of your states boating regulations and read them. Believe me there are some conservation officers that just love to catch people on the water without all the proper equipment and paperwork. I don't know you're age but besides gettin you in trouble if your under age could cause your parents a big headache. Also just recently my state passed a law that anyone born after 1986 must take a water safety course before operating a watercraft of any type so check into that also.
