Small Ships

Isle of Man REgister (Part II)

The small ships register is available for locally owned vessels of less than 24 metres in length. It is not a title register and therefore a mortgage cannot be registered against any vessel on it. The registration procedure is simple with just a couple of forms to be completed. Registration lasts five years after which it can be renewed as required.

For further registration advice see RAN 09.

The forms required for registration are as follows:

  1. Application form to Register (SSR 1A)
  2. Bill of Sale if changing ownership (Reg 11)
  3. Builders Certificate (Reg 12) if new build
  4. Deletion Certificate if previously registered
