The Boat Sale Receipt Template documents the details of a completed sale. This paperwork will serve as a record for both the Seller and the Buyer. In fact, the Buyer may be called upon to produce it as proof of purchase to other entities (i.e. licensing, taxes). This means that several details regarding the concerned vessel should be laid out in this paperwork along with the submitted payment amount(s) and the identities of the Boat Seller and Buyer. Once completed, the receipt will serve as the proof of payment that can be useful to the Buyer as well as a valuable record-keeping tool for the Seller.

Step 1 – Download The Boat Sale Receipt As A PDF Or Word Document
The receipt needed to document the formal payment for a boat can be downloaded directly from this page (as a “PDF” file or “Word” document) by accessing it through the buttons captioning the sample picture or through the two links above (“Adobe PDF” and “Microsoft Word (.docx)”).
Step 2 – Introduce The Boat Seller
The Seller of the vessel being discussed will be the subject of the first few details required by this receipt. The “Company Name” field at the top of this page will seek the legal identity of the Boat Seller. Furnish this information as a replacement for this label in the first text field. 
The “Name” line that follows seeks the first, middle, and last name of the Sales Person or Boat Owner that has received payment for the vessel and must now document that payment. Enter this Sales Person’s (or Boat Owner’s) full “Name” on this first empty line of the receipt. This receipt will also expect some courtesy information supplied with the Boat Seller or Vessel Owner’s identity. The formal business address where this Entity can be reached by mail must now be dispensed. Use the empty lines in the “Company Name” section labeled “Street Address,” “City, State,” as well as “Zip Code” to enter this information properly. Lastly, produce the Boat Seller or Vessel Owner’s business telephone number on the line labeled “Phone.”
Step 3 – Furnish The Boat Sales’s Filing Information
The receipt information for this paperwork is the first topic of conversation and will introduce the body of the receipt with a shaded bar. Find the line labeled “Receipt #” then deliver the filing number assigned to the vessel’s payment to it for display. 
The sample “Date” on the right should be replaced with whichever “Date” that payment was formally received by the Boat Seller or Vessel Owner from the concerned Purchaser.
Step 4 – Produce The Vessel’s Buyer Information
The Customer that has paid the Boat Seller or Vessel Owner for the concerned boat should be named to this role in the “Buyer Information” section. This Party’s full “Name” must be produced on the first line while his or her entire address should be dispensed to the appropriately labeled lines that follow (“Street Address,” “City, State, Country,” and “Zip Code”). Keep in mind that the Party listed here will be given the credit for the vessel payment being document. 
Next, utilize the line designated with the word “Phone” in the “Buyer Information” section to document the Vessel Purchaser’s telephone number. It is recommended that you record this Party’s business telephone number, however, a cell or home telephone number may also be supplied if appropriate.
Step 5 – Define The Vessel That Was Sold
The boat or vessel at the heart of this receipt must be defined to a reasonable extent for the purpose of documenting its payment properly. Thus, find the “Vessel Information” section on the right-hand side of the page. The blank lines in this section will be labeled to request details concerning the vessel that was sold. The first detail requested is the boat’s “Year And Condition.” Define this material on the first empty line in the “Vessel Information” section. Report the Vessel’s “Make” and “Model” down the next two lines. This information is usually found in the boat’s owner manual if it is not clearly visible on the vessel. Next, record the “Hull ID #” found on the starboard to the blank line calling for it. The “Odometer (Hours)” should be furnished as well. This will aid in supporting the reported condition of the boat as well as identify it during the point of sale. Lastly, use the “Title #” line to record the number defining this boat’s ownership. If no title number is available then either contact the previous owner, the manufacturer, or the last entity where the boat was registered to obtain this information.
Step 6 – Further Describe The Purchased Vessel
Two additional areas focusing on specific topics will enable some additional definitions to this vessel. Locate the question “Was A Trailer Included In The Sale?” Mark the appropriate checkbox to answer this question. Two have been provided so if a trailer was included then mark the “Yes” box (see example) below. However, if no trailer was included then mark the box labeled “No” and proceed to the next section. 
If a trailer was included in the boat sale, then you must document the “Make” and “Model” of the purchased trailer on the two blank lines provided immediately under the “Yes” box that was marked. If a trailer was not sold and the above checkbox marked is “No” then leave these lines blank. Find the question “Was An Outboard Motor Included In The Sale.” This will also be answered as a “Yes” or “No” question by marking the appropriately labeled checkbox. If there was no outboard motor included in this payment then mark the “No” box, however, if the Boat Purchaser paid for an outboard motor then you must mark the “Yes” box (see example). The “Make,” “Model,” and manufacture “Year” of the outboard motor must be documented for this receipt’s completion on the three blank lines holding these labels. 
In addition to the above manufacturer details for the outboard motor that was purchased, the amount of horsepower of the motor must be reported on the “HP” line.
Step 7 – Discuss The Costs Behind The Purchase
Now that the boat has been described for this receipt its costs must be recorded. Three empty lines are set to receive this information through labels requesting specific values. First, report how much the boat cost the Vessel Purchaser on the blank line labeled “Cost Of Vessel.” Apply all discounts and taxes relevant to this sale to this figure then report it. 
Next, if a trailer was purchased, then the full “Cost Of Trailer” line must be populated with the dollar portion of the Customer’s payment devoted to the trailer. Thus, enter the amount that was required for the trailer to be purchased on the “Cost Of Trailer” line Lastly, if an outboard motor was included in the purchase price, then record how much money was diverted to its payment from the Boat Buyer’s submitted funds on the blank line labeled “Cost Of Motor.” Add the values reported on the lines “Cost Of Vessel,” “Cost Of Trailer,” and “Cost Of Motor.” This “Total” must be the sum of the purchased items above as well as the submitted amount for this transaction to be complete.
Step 8 – Confirm The Vessel’s Purchase By Statement
A statement of confirmation will specifically name the amount paid, the Payer, and the payment date but only if you input this information to its contents where expected. Thus, locate the words “The Total Amount” and produce the dollar value of the Boat Buyer’s payment on the available empty line that follows. 
The second blank line in this statement is reserved to receive your entry of the Customer’s “Name” for display after the word “…By” and before “The Customer…” The payment “Date” for this receipt is the final record to be submitted to this statement. Produce it on the last empty line in the statement beginning with the phrase “The Total Amount…”
Step 9 – Document How The Funds For This Purchase Were Received
The Boat Buyer will have submitted the funds in some way to the Boat Seller or previous Vessel Owner. This, too, will have to be set to paper on this receipt. If this purchase was conducted with a credit card, then submit a reproduction of the credit card number used on the blank line labeled “Credit Card No.” then check the box corresponding to this label. 
Select the second checkbox down if the payment submitted was done so with a paper check. If so, supply the “Check No” as requested after marking this checkbox item. A paper money payment consisting of “Cash” can be documented by marking the first checkbox on the right. If the Boat Buyer did not use a credit card, a check, or cash to pay for this vessel then mark the checkbox item labeled “Other.” Once done, define the payment method by entering it on the blank line provided.
Step 10 – Obtain The Vessel Buyer’s Signature
The Boat Buyer, or the Purchaser of this vessel, must sign his or her name to complete this sale and approve the payment especially if a credit card or other similar method was used to deliver the payment. The “Customer’s Authorized Signature” line at the bottom of this page is reserved for this action to take place. Release the completed receipt to the Boat Buyer so that he or she may review then approve it. Once these tasks are completed, take control of this document then deliver a copy of it to the Boat Seller for his or her records and use. 
How To Write In Excel
Download; Microsoft Excel (.xlsx)
Step 1 – Download The Boat Sale Receipt Template As An Excel Document
The Boat Sale Receipt displayed in the example on this page is obtainable as a “Microsoft Excel (.xlsx)” file through the presented link or by selecting the “Excel” button.
Step 2 – Submit The Boat Seller’s Introduction To This Receipt
The initial task this receipt expects completed will be to identify the Boat Seller issuing this paperwork. Cell A1, containing the words “Add Your Company Logo Here,” should be used as the staging area for the Boat Seller’s logo. Insert this image as a replacement for this label. 
The “Company Name” of the Boat Seller along with the “Name” of the Sales Representative handling this purchase should be reported in cell A2 and A3, respectively.
Column A’s introduction of the Boat Seller will also seek the address of the dealership accepting payment in exchange for the concerned vessel. Cell A4 (“Street Address”) and cell A5 (“City, State, Country”) have been placed so that the Boat Seller’s information and mailing address can be presented together. Cell A6 is reserved for the Boat Seller’s “Zip Code.”The final task this introduction requires completed is a report on additional means of contact the Boat Seller maintains. To deliver this information to the receipt’s header, supply the Boat Seller’s email where requested in cell A7 and business telephone number monitored by the Seller to cell A8.
Step 3 – Furnish The Boat Payment’s Filing Material
The transaction number or the payment number that the Boat Seller has determined to be the filing description for the received payment should be reported underneath the label “Receipt #.” Replace the hashtag symbol in cell F3 with the concerned receipt number. Assign the Vessel Buyer’s payment “Date” to cell H3 so that it can be paired with the receipt number in the Boat Seller’s records.
Step 4 – An Account Of The Boat Buyer Should Be Included
The “Buyer Information” section of this spreadsheet will now expect some details to solidify the identity of the concerned vessel’s Purchaser. The full “Name” of Vessel Buyer should be recorded in cell A11. 
Cell A12 and cell A13 in this section continue with a request for the mailing address of the Vessel Buyer. Submit the production of the Vessel Buyer’s “Street Address” then “City, State,” and “Country” to these fields, then accompany this address with its “Zip Code” entered in cell A14.
Deliver the Vessel Buyer’s current “E-Mail” address in cell A15 then, conclude this portion of column A by dispensing the Vessel Buyer’s telephone number to the field in cell A16.
Step 5 – Detail The Purchased Vessel
The next part of the receipt concerns itself with the vessel being sold. Here, in the “Vessel Information” section, several fields will need entry to adequately define the purchased vessel or boat. First, record the ship’s “Year And Condition” in cell F11 then document its manufacture “Make” and “Model” in cells F12 and F13 (respectively).
Next, take a visual inspection of the vessel. The “Hull ID #” (usually found starboard) must be transcribed to cell F14 while cell F15 requires a report on the “Odometer (Hours)” reading entered to its contents. Finally, locate the “Title” of the concerned ship then furnish the title number in cell F16.
Step 6 – Discuss Additional Boating Equipment Sold
This receipt will continue with two additional requests for definition concerning the purchased vessel. Begin with the question in cell A18 (“Was A Trailer Included In The Sale”). If the Vessel Buyer purchased a trailer when submitting this payment, then it must be documented by marking the box labeled “Yes” in cell A19. 
If the concerned purchase did not include a trailer with the boat, then mark the “No” box in cell A19. Column A will continue this subject if a trailer was included with the sale price. In such cases then the trailer’s “Make” must be furnished in cell A20 and its “Model” reported in cell A21.
Similarly, if an outboard motor was purchased, then the question in cell F18 must be answered by marking “Yes” in cell A19. This action must be followed with the outboard motor’s “Make” (cell F20), “Model” (cell F21), “Year” (cell F22), and horsepower (cell F23) recorded where the appropriate labels are displayed. If an outboard motor was not included with the boat purchase, then mark the box labeled “No” in cell F18 and leave the remainder of this area unattended.
Step 7 – Deliver The Price Of Purchased Vessel And Equipment
Cell A25 of this spreadsheet calls for the “Cost Of Vessel” information. This requires the full price paid for the vessel (excluding trailers and outboard motors) be reported after the label “Cost Of Vessel”If a trailer was purchased with the boat, then report the full price of the trailer (including taxes) to cell A26 after the label “Cost Of Trailer.”
The sale of an outboard motor with the vessel purchase will also need to be documented. If an outboard motor was purchased, then produce the full “Cost Of Motor” in cell A27. Add the values entered in cell A25 (“Cost Of Vessel”), cell A26 (“Cost Of Trailer”), and A27 (“Cost Of Motor”). Furnish this sum to cell A28.
Step 8 – Supplement The Language In The Receipt’s Declaration Statement
The statement in cell A29 will begin the process of closing this receipt. It will serve as a summary declaration of the information above once you replace several items it contains. Therefore, find the symbol “([$])” and replace it with the full dollar amount of the received boat payment. Next, remove “[Name]” from the statement in cell A29 and substitute the Vessel Buyer’s identity in its stead (as reported in “Buyer Information”). Finish answering this statement’s requirements by deleting “[Date]” and typing in the payment “Date” of the vessel immediately after the word “On.”
Step 9 – Deliver An Adequate Description Of The Vessel Purchaser’s Payment Method
The “Payment Method” heading displayed in cell A31 allows a relatively quick method to document how the vessel purchase was concluded. If a “Credit Card No.” was used then find this label in cell A32, mark the checkbox to the immediate left, and furnish the exact credit card number that was used in the space on the right. 
A similar process may be used to document a received check from the Vessel Buyer. If a paper check was issued as payment (and accepted) then, select the checkbox item “Check No.” in cell A33 and transcribe the check number displayed on the submitted tender. Cell F32 will name the payment method as a submitted “Cash” payment. Select this item’s checkbox if this is the case. Now, find cell A33 (“Other”). If the Vessel Buyer’s method of payment cannot be defined by cell A32, cell A33, or cell F32 then, you must choose the item in cell F33 as the method of payment. This requires an accurate record of the purchase method used typed in directly after the label “Other.”
Step 10 – Request The Boat Purchaser’s Signature Be Produced
The Vessel Buyer who has submitted payment must also offer proof of his or her intent to surrender the funds in exchange for the discussed boat (and equipment). This type of proof will usually be required to be a signature at the time of purchase and should be submitted in cell A32. Thus, give the completed receipt to the Vessel Buyer and request he or she sign the “Customer’s Authorized Signature” line (displayed in cell A34). If the Boat or Vessel Dealership (or Seller) is set up with an electronic signature system, then this may be implemented to this cell so long as it is compatible with Excel.
