Trailer licensing went smoothly after running all over town. First to Motor Vehicle Department and Police station to assign a VIN number, verify trailer weight documentation and provide notary documents on construction and completion dates. Then to bank for cash and notary of documents. Next off to a gas station where they perform safety inspections(common in Hawaii). They gave a temporary approval, checked lights and functionality, insurance, license plate light, weight. Off to Registration office for a license plate, registration sticker, payment. They verify weight certificate, safety inspection, notarized VIN documents. Back to gas station for safety check sticker good for one year. Once trailer is modified for landing pad blocks and cushions it should be ready to receive boat.
