Application with a Florida Title

To transfer a Florida title of a used boat to the new owner complete the transfer information of the current seller's title. If the vessel is purchased through a dealer, the dealer reassignment also must be completed. Sales tax will be collected if applicable. In the event the title is lost, a duplicate title may be applied for using form HSMV 82101. When the vessel owner is not present, the owner can sign a Power of Attorney, form HSMV 82053, to allow the purchaser or agent to act in his behalf.

If you wish to apply for a duplicate title with transfer, both the purchaser and the sellar must be present. A Power of Attorney cannot be used for a duplicate title with transfer.
