    Is there any specific regulation, registration requirement, or any defining language in any state regarding floating homes? Slf propelled or non-self-propelled.
    Many seem to be being built, and a growing trend. Most insurance companies won't write them. Some have HIN #’s, some do not. Some mount an outboard on a bracket, but no CG certification.
    To what standards are these homes or vessels required to be certified and built to?
