Wendel Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 I've been searching on google, but not coming up with helpful information. We are supposed to pickup our new to us boat this week, and I would like to know how I'm supposed to check the boat for liens against it. I know it's something we have to do, but still a little unsure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

workwear Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 i beleieve you can register a lien on a pleasure craft...would only make sense if someone is financing it..... and yes all leins usually do come up on a ppsa search....i think its 15dollars to get that check done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob v Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 To the best of my knowledge you can't register a vehicle (vessel) specific charge under the PPSA in Ontario like you can a car/truck/motorcyle etc. But you can register a general lein against a person identifying the type of collateral pledged (boat). What this means ism, unlike a vehicle where you can do a search by vehicle serial number you need to search the person's name (proper name) vs the boat. Hope that helps.

Dave Frasso Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 This is good for buying Cars etc, get the VIN number & name of person selling. Boats or any outdoor RV Toys etc, Serial # & model from them. Last time was a few years ago... My son used this. Called the Persoanl Property Registration Centre in Toronto Hours are 8:00am to 5:00pm Phone 1-800-2678847............Fax 1-416-325-0487 Required Information for Search 1. First Middle Last Names Required & date of Birth or 2. Serial Number or Trade-in Required A Search Fee of $10.00 may be paid by Credit Card. Thr Prefrerred method is to Phone the information in to allow for immediate verbal confirmation of leins or free of encumberances on the product Well worth the $10.00 Good Luck Dave .
