Hey all, I just bought a 15’ Boston whaler and a Shoreline trailer from my uncle. The whaler has a good title in my uncles name, the trailer however does not have a title. I live in NJ and from what I have found online, a trailer weighing less than 2,500 pounds does not have/need a title for registration. I’m not sure if that is true or not but I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight on if it’s going to be a PITA to get tags and registration for the trailer. This is my first boat and boat trailer so any advice is appreciated!
