Yes it does :-)
Here in Quebec there used to be 2/3 kinds:

registered boat ( licence ) which requires you to have the boat number on the 
bow, depending of the area it starts with 10Dxxxx 15Dxxxx 20D and so on
Many boats which were bought in the US and for which teh owner will sail on a 
US lake can have an "in bound" number which were easiily identified with the 
"B" suffix at the end of the number ( ex: 10D 123456 B ), one could have the 
right to take his boat back in Canada for a period of 6 months,  every year ( 
officially for maintenance purpose ). This allowed ownser to avoid paying taxes 
and duties . I don't know if this still valid.

The other way is to have a "Blue Book" which means it is registered by 
Transport CAnada, in this case you don't need the number, just the ( unique ) 
name of your boat. I think it is mandatory if one wants to have a mortgage to 
buy a boat ( instead of a loan )

That is a license number.
A registered vessel just has the name and port of registry on the hull.
Registered vessels also have unique names. Indigo is registered and the only
registered Indigo in Canada .

If you put numbers on, it's licensed.

I was talked into registering my boat by some government
people at their booth at the Halifax Boat show a few years ago.  It was
free and it seemed like a good idea so I did it and put the registration
numbers for either side of the bow as per instructions.
 
As a
result of that and about 2 years later but 6 years after I had actually
purchased the boat, the NS government came looking for proof of taxes
paid.  The papers I got from the broker were very useful, thankfully I had
saved them, they showed that the government had received the tax money but I
still had to prove it 6 years later.  Save all of the documents that you
get.

Thanks for all the info on the possible C&C30 purchase.

One of the responses brought up an unconsidered issue - maybe the others in 
Nova Scotia and Canada 
can comment.

I got a price on shipping the boat back - initial estimate is ~$5000 plus
getting it on and off the trailer (Sealand).  Estimate from a professional
captain is ~$3000 to sail it back for me.  Or I could sail it back myself
(which sound like an adventure, provided all goes smoothly!!!) -- So if I go
ahead more likely

Bob Hickson raised the issue of getting a boat registered.  I had not
really thought about it.  I didn't do anything to register or transfer
ownership of my current Mirage 24 (but it only has an 8Hp outboard), nor did I
register a 16 ft bowrider I bought and sold several years back.

I don't recall seeing boats around the club with the typical license codes on
the bow (I do recall that from Ontario )

Looking online - I can't find anything specific with Nova Scotia - but 
Transport Canada
(http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/mediaroom/backgrounders-b04-m055e-1329.htm)
says 




Licensing
and registration
All pleasure craft, which are principally
maintained and operated in Canada and powered by one or more motors adding up
to 7.5 kW (10 hp) or more must be either licensed or registered.
and




Note:
You must display your pleasure craft licence number:
·         above the waterline;
·         on both sides of the bow;
·         in block characters not less than
7.5 centimetres (3 inches) high; and
·         in a contrasting colour to the
vessel colour.

Maybe I've just been ignoring the issue and got away with it?

Advice appreciated.

Mark
