Trailer it to your nearest Ohio division of watercraft office. They will inspect it, and do a title search using the hull vin and or registration #'s. Based upon there finding they will instruct you in the next steps necessary to create you a new correct number of digits vin # and title. If the title search process is going to take a long time and you would like to put it on the water, they can help you get a temporary registration.
Oh, the price of this info is you need to post some pics!!!
