Maine Trailer Registration

Has anyone ever registered a trailer in Maine?  I found THIS website.  It seems that you don't have to live in Maine to do it.  It does say they won't register a camping trailer but many of us have utility trailers so I'm wondering if anyone has done this.  What do the cops say if and when you get pulled over?

I just bought a boat trailer that I am flip flopping back and forth on either making it a utility trailer since the GVW is 6,000#'s -vs- my 1,000# current utility trailer or going with my original intended idea of cutting it up and making it a coal bin on wheels with a detachable tongue.  This way I don't have to unload my trailer or pickup.  Just push it in the garage and take the tongue off of it.  If I make it a coal bin I don't care if I have a plate on it.  It is only 15 miles to the coal yard each way and I'd probably go twice a year for a 1/2 ton each trip (or maybe 1 ton once a year).  If I make it a utility trailer, then I will want a plate on it.
