When selling a boat, what must the former owner do?

  1. Notify Transport Canada

  2. Sign a transfer form

  3. Pay a transfer fee

  4. Provide a new PFD for each passenger

The correct answer is: Sign a transfer form

When selling a boat, the former owner must sign a transfer form in order to transfer ownership of the boat to the new owner. Option A, notifying Transport Canada, is not a requirement when selling a boat. Option C, paying a transfer fee, is also not a necessary step when selling a boat, as long as the transfer form is properly completed and submitted. Option D, providing a new PFD for each passenger, is a safety measure but not a legal requirement for selling a boat.
