I apologize to the list for creating a misunderstanding.
I never intended to imply that one should NOT register your tender
with your state.
If the state requires it, then do so.
But, if there is a possibility of travel outside the US and outside
the North America continent, you may want to consider how you mark
the tender with the state's registration #.
At check-in, the two cruisers that i had dinner with last year did
not have a problem using their bill of sale to prove they owed the
tender. They had a problem trying to explain the numbering scheme on
the tender, and then when they showed the authorities their state
registration documents, they had more explaining to do. (Can you
picture trying to explain this in a language you may not speak well,
or if the authorities speak English, that they do not speak well!)
So, they ended up taking their numbers and letters off and just
showing the bill-of-sale as proof of ownership, if asked.
One cruiser had to paint over their registration, and then he said
the authorities at a port in Italy (I think Bari) really looked hard
because they thought it was stolen.
The other cruiser I think had his numbers on a board, and he just
removed the boards.
