The key differentiators between Documentation and state Titles and registrations have to with transfer when selling.
If documented that is the form that constitutes transfer of ownership - not any state registration as they should be marked not transferable.
State titles on the other hand are used to transfer ownership.
If anyone has both a federal (documented boat) and a state title they would do well to get one eliminated or it could become an issue re clear title when selling... I'd hate to buy a boat and get a state title signed over only to find the seller still held the federal title via documentation.
