Yes you do. It should be under $50 as long as you inherited it and do not have to pay taxes. It helps to have the boat with you in the parking lot in case they have any questions or need to look at any #'s when registering it for the first time. If it has been registered before (has a bow #), then it is really simple, if not... it's not too bad either. Make sure you have the capacity plate on the boat, it is required if the water police pull you over and it also has the #'s that the people registering may need to use. A bill of sale wouldn't hurt either, but may not be necessary. On my boat they wanted to see it all, and luckily it was all in order.
