Boat Registration in Italy: difference between
watercraft and pleasure craft
The boats are not all the same, and it is good not to confuse
them, especially if you decide to register a boat in Italy because
they entail different obligations.
Indeed, the following distinction is noted:
- Pleasure ships, units with hulls longer than
24 meters;
- Pleasure vessel, units with a hull less than
24 meters in length and greater than 10 meters;
- Pleasure boat, with a length equal to or less
than 10 meters.
Boat Registration in Italy: When it is mandatory to
register a boat in Italy?
Register a boat in Italy (or rather, inscription in the Register
of Boats) is not always necessary. Registration is in fact
mandatory when you have a vessel with a hull between 10 and
24 meters in length, as well as for pleasure ships
longer than 24 meters.
