From the Oregon State Marine Board site http://www.oregon.gov/OSMB/BoatReg/F...__What_do_I_do_

Q: I bought a boat, but it didn't have a title. What do I do?A:
Contact the Marine Board to obtain the name and last known address of the owner of record for an Oregon titled boat. For out of state boats, call the Marine Board for contact information for the other state. Complete an Application for Lost Boat Title, and have all parties who have an interest in the boat sign that the title is lost and release their interest. Their signatures must be notarized or they should sign and provide a copy of valid photo identification (front and back).

I would have him get a lost title and when the boat is in his name I would do the transaction.You may not be able to get stickers without a title.
