Once the USCG documents and/or re-documents (in the case of sale or change of ownership) a vessel for a new owner the documentation team sends notice of the new ownership to the tax commissioner and/tax assessor in the City and/or County of the boat's hailing port. In most cases this is the owner's home address or lawyer's office if documented in a Corporate name in low tax state as in say Delaware.
My 39 TM is documented and the home port is Miami as that is where the Seventh District Coast Guard is located, however the hailing port on the transom is Savannah, GA so the notice of ownership was sent by the USCG to the Tax Commissioner of Chatham County and they have been taxing me since 1975 Best regards, Jack Fitzgerald C&C 39TM HONEY US12788 On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 2:01 PM, Tom Buscaglia via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > In Washington state you still need to register your boat and pay the sales > tax and annual vessel registration fee.
