Pennsylvania law sections 7325 and 7326 outline the responsibilities of the Department of Transportation regarding watercraft trailers. The Department must notify owners and lienholders upon receiving certain notices, and watercraft trailer dealers are required to publish public notices about trailers to protect their interests. These provisions ensure proper communication and legal transfer of ownership rights.
The notice informs owners and lienholders about the watercraft trailer, ensuring they are aware of any legal claims or ownership details related to the trailer.
The dealer must publish a notice once a week for two consecutive weeks after receiving notice from the Department about the trailer.
The notice includes a description of the watercraft trailer and any identifying numbers to inform the public and protect the dealer's rights.
The Department uses accessible databases to determine the name and address of owners and lienholders for trailers registered outside Pennsylvania.
