(1)   An assigned and notarized Oklahoma certificate of title, and

(2)   Verification of hull identification or serial number of the vessel/motor (OTC Form BM-10) if the Oklahoma title does not have the verification on the back.

The completed form must be accompanied by proof of ownership, such as a notarized Bill of Sale, Sales Contract and lien filing, or cancelled check to the former owner, showing the HIN or serial number of the boat or outboard motor.

(d)   Deceased owner. When the record owner is deceased, the documentary guidelines applicable to vehicles, as outlined under OAC 710:60-5-77, are to be applied.
