Vessel Re-Registration Required

Lake Limerick Country Club will be conducting a complete re-registration of all member vessels starting this year.  This action is due in part to the discovery that previous registration records were inadvertently destroyed.  We last did a complete vessel re-registration in 2010, and we will leverage lessons learned from that exercise.  So, regardless of when your last vessel registration occurred, you need to re-register your boat(s) starting this year.

Registering your vessel can go smoothly if you bring the proper documentation and complete the proper registration form(s).  Re-registration may be completed either on-site or via email and you are encouraged to complete registration at your earliest convenience. When you bring your registration documents to the office, please consider the following:

• Any vessel over 16 feet or powered by a motor of 10 HP or greater requires registration by the State and LLCC.
• Only members can register boats and the boat must belong to the member, in other words the name on the State Vessel Certificate of Registration must match a lot owner’s name (no boats from relatives or friends).
• Vessels over 19 feet in length are not allowed except as follows; 1) pontoon boats up to 20 feet in length and 2) competition ski boats up to 20 ft in length with a BOD approved exception.
• You must provide the current (original) copy of your state registration form for us to photocopy.  This is the document you get every year when you register your boat with the state (no titles or trailer registrations).
• If your boat is a competition ski boat over 19 feet but less than 21 feet in length you will be required to file for a length exemption. Your first step will be to prepare and submit a registration request as described above. You will be notified of any additional effort needed to complete your registration.

What you need to register your vessel:

• A completed LLCC Vessel Registration Form
• A Washington State Vessel Registration Certificate (for us to photocopy).
• See the LLCC Vessel Registration Procedures And Forms document found on the LLCC website: https://lakelimerick.com/static_document/vessel-registration-form/

Registration Options:

• Option 1 – ON SITE REGISTRATION; Normal in-office registration.
  • Option one is to register your boat in the office by following the documented procedure.
• Option 2 – ON SITE REGISTRATION: Attend an in-person Vessel Registration Event following the L/D meetings listed below.
  • Extra help will be available in the office to expedite boat registrations and inspections (if required) on:  
    • Saturday June 29th from noon to 1:00 pm.
    • Saturday August 3rd from noon to 1:00 pm.
    • Saturday September 7th from noon to 1:00 pm.
• Option 3 – ON LINE (Email) REGISTRATION: Email appropriate documents
  • Fill out a Vessel Registration Form electronically on your computer (saved as a PDF) and along with a color scanned copy of your current year State Vessel Registration Certificate (also saved as a PDF) email both to: mail@lakelimerick.com
  • You will be notified if additional information is needed and when to pick up your Vessel Tags from the office.

Newly designed boat decals will be issued to members at the time of re-registration only if the proper documentation is presented and approved.  All boats must be re-registered by October 1st, 2025.  If a boat is not re-registered, the member will be out of compliance and subject to a fine.
