Just got this of the NSW Maritime site

http://www.waterways.nsw.gov.au/sbh.html

So yes by reading this i am sure it does in NSW

The following vessels must be registered with NSW Maritime when they are on navigable waters in NSW:

* any mechanically propelled or sailing vessel of 5.5 metres or longer

* every vessel subject to a mooring licence

* every vessel subject to a permissive occupancy (includes marina berths)

* every personal watercraft (PWC).

Exemptions from this requirement include:

* any vessel less than 5.5 metres in length, powered by an engine with a power rating of less than 4.0 kilowatts (5 horsepower or less) that is not a commercial vessel and that is not the subject of a mooring licence

* any sailing vessel which belongs to one of the following classes and that is not the subject of a mooring licence

o Flying Dutchman

o Jubilee

o Light Weight Sharpie

o Tornado

* Vessels subject to a hire and drive licence
