One night after work, a local police officer informed me that the boat trailer was in town for more than 30 days, and they request me to have the trailer registered. He said that it is mandatory that all vehicles that are in Mass for more than 30 days requires Mass registration. I said a trailer is not a vehicle. He gave me a warning. I found a storage facility in Dracut that will take the boat for the rest of the winter. I haven’t heard any more on this situation.
Mass. has a hang up about out of state registered trailers as well as vehicles. You may want to keep NH registered trailers out of sight when in Mass.
