I am currently looking to purchase a 14' jon boat to modify for shallow water. I won't even purchase a "deal", under $300, hull with out a title. Why would you want to spend any of your money on an item that you may not end up legally owning. Imagine the worst case scenario. You finish restoring this gem and the titled owner shows up. You lose your trailer because most states do not care about your investment in someone else's property. If the seller gets the title buy it. If not I would advise you not to buy it. Let the seller deal with the hassle of the missing title but offer to add the fees he pays to your purchase offer. Make sure you place a limit in writing on what you will reimburse towards the fees.
