The bill amends the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act by updating sections related to the sale and transfer of watercraft and off-road vehicles (ORVs). It introduces provisions that allow the Secretary of State to establish an electronic system for processing the notification and transfer of ownership interests in watercraft and ORVs, provided that none of the parties involved is a dealer. This electronic system aims to streamline the transfer process and requires private parties using the system to comply with necessary departmental requirements and protect proprietary information.

Additionally, the bill maintains existing requirements for the sale and purchase of watercraft and ORVs, which include the necessity of delivering a certificate of title to the purchaser and obtaining a certificate of title in the buyer's name. The amendments ensure that the electronic transfer system aligns with current regulations while enhancing efficiency in ownership transfers for these vehicles.
