Property Tax on Boat

[snyderaaron]

Did anyone have to pay property tax on their boat or trailer? If so how much?

[zabooda]

About $25 a year excise tax on the boat and it is itemized on my federal taxes. No state taxes though.

Yes, we do about $350 a year. BS if you ask me.

I pay enough property tax in this stinking state. If they tax my moombie, thats it im moving ....

IMO property tax is the worst kind of tax there is. you dont own your land, you just rent it from the government.

now paying property tax for a boat is even more outrageous. i pay enough road tax putting gas in my boat, i dont need any extra taxes

I get to claim my tags for the boat, trailer and truck but i dont pay property tax on them. I only pay property tax on a house valued at 300K when i can only sell if for 150K in this market. Now thats BS.

WTF, this is the first I have heard of that. Whew and I thought we ,up here in Canada ,were taxed to death. Do they tax you on a canoe or 14' ,7hp aluminum boat as well? How about a paddle boat tax?

we pay tax when you buy the boat, but after that, you're done.
registration is around $30/yr and then $20/yr for the quagga mussel permit.
boat ramp charges $25/yr for parking.

cheap if you ask me

yes the old dreaded sales tax, but property tax on a boat?
