Let us setup a UK LTD. or Delaware LLC for the ownership of your vessel. We can setup either of these entities for you (€399 UK LTD or €299 Delaware LLC) and this entity will then become the owner of your vessel. We will make a bill of sale were you as a private person sell your boat to your new company (of which you are the owner).

Since the new company is only used for owning a boat, you will not need to pay any yearly taxes or do any government filings. There will just be a small renewal fee for the company registration.
