Just spoke with the prospective purchaser, and he says he has heard it is cheaper if it is trucked into Canada instead of floated in. Something to do with it being a commercial import with a lower tax rate, instead of personal.
That just seems nutz. Of course, all the tariffs and such are in such a state of flux right now, Probably tough to get the same answer twice from the same person. So simple to just scoot right through the Welland Canal.

Paying GST at the border will qualify you for the lower 7% rate, see below. In any case, it seems doubtful that there would be any concession for re-patriating a boat to BC based on these ridiculous tax laws. About the only way to reduce tax that I've ready about is to list items not normally attached to the boat separately, with item values, on a bill of sale. This means dinghy, outboard, BBQ, etc. From: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/taxes/sales-taxes/publications/pst-108-boats.pdf "If you bring a boat into BC from outside Canada, you must pay PST at the rate of 7% on the taxable value of the boat. The taxable value is the value of the boat as determined under the Excise Tax Act (Canada). The Canada Border Services Agency may collect the PST due when you bring the boat into Canada. If not, you must self-assess the PST due (see Paying PST below)."

If you have HST in your province, you will pay that. If you don’t have HST, then you will have to pay PST. You better pay it promptly; provinces are notorious for being slow, but they WILL find you (they came after me after 3 years from crossing the border with a gentle proposal to pay a hefty fine, but I had the documents showing that the tax was paid).

The GST is applicable to almost everything once a person's little exemption limit is reached. The import duty was waived due to NAFTA being in place and that year (2003) the C&C head office was in the USA.
