    Antique (30 yrs. or more) registration. First time you either go in person or use an agent. Mine dropped from 197.00 to 16.00

    Sadly, not for incorporated boats.

    If 1995 is antique then I must be a mid-century relic. I recall hearing a stat from years past that a 10 year old yacht was still considered relatively new.

    My old Hatt is under an LLC…. Antique reg must be recreational, not commercial but ownership isn’t a factor

    Antique in FL, greater than 20 years old.
    1995 was just the other day in my mind but sadly, 30 years ago.
    I'll probably purchase the blue (antique) tags for my '98 and '04 trucks next renewal.
