Boat Registration Reminders Coming in the Mail

[cid:image007.jpg at 01D23B51.DCB9F590]         The Oregon State Marine Board is mailing approximately 78,000 boat registration renewal notices mid-November, to boaters whose boat registration expires on December 31, 2016.
Using the Marine Board's online storefront, RegLine (redge-line) is the fastest way for boaters to renew boat registrations.  Options to renew include:
Online Options:  Includes a printable temporary permit to use the boat right away.
*       This is the fastest option for single boat renewals. Customers can click on the 2018 decal image at www.boatoregon.com<http://www.boatoregon.com>, which redirects to RegLine.  Click on the "Boat Renewal" tab and enter the Certificate of Number (OR number) and PIN from the renewal notice.
*       Customers needing to update their address and contact information or needing to renew multiple boat registrations with a single payment, need to login to their account.

By Mail:

  *   Customers can detach and mail the remittance coupon with a check or money order.  One payment can also be mailed with multiple coupons.

Local Boat Registration Agent:

  *   Take the boat registration renewal notice to a local Boat Registration Agent.  Agents can charge an additional fee up to $8. See www.boatoregon.com<http://www.boatoregon.com>  for a list of agents.

The online registration system is also integrated with other Marine Board services where boaters can order any of the following:

*       [cid:image008.jpg at 01D23B51.DCB9F590] Boater Education Card or Replacement Card

*       Certificate of Title for a Boat and Replacement Title

*       Certificate of Number (Boat Registration Card with OR number) with or without Registration Decals and Replacement Stickers

*       Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) Permits

*       Outfitter and Guide Registration and Renewals

*       Charter Boat License Application and Renewal

As a result of legislation in 2015, the cost for registration is now $4.50 per foot, rounded to the highest foot.  A $5 surcharge is also added to the registration fee for the Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention fund that pays for inspection stations, decontamination equipment, inspectors, signage, and education materials.
The Marine Board is funded entirely by motorized boat registrations, motorboat fuel tax and receives federal funding to support services to boaters.  Nearly eighty-six cents of every dollar are returned to boaters in the form of law enforcement services, boat ramps, restrooms (floating and land-based), parking, boarding floats, and boating safety classes and information.
