Also, when selling something like a boat on Craigslist – does everyone usually just do cash only? Even for 10’s of thousands? Not sure there is really another reliable method of payment.
Does anyone know how does the registration exchange would work? Would the new owner need to have the boat registered in their name in order to pilot it away from the dock? Any suggestions on the logistics of how that would work? Would I need to provide anything other than the current proof of registration and a bill of sale? To a buyer?
In this specific case, would it be easier to just eat a consignment fee and have the sale brokered by a marina?
Thanks for anyone's help/thoughts on this.

You could ask for a certified bank check? These are accepted at closings for homes, etc. The bank certifies that the funds are in the account prior to issuing the check. Not sure if that helps.
