Vessel titling is a record-keeping system that provides ownership protection to vessel owners, going beyond the vessel registration system. Titling is also done by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. It also protects the interests of financial institutions or individuals that provide loans on vessels. The Department keeps computerized records on all titled vessels, and issues title certificates which document the owner of a vessel and any liens that lenders choose to record on the title certificate.
