I bought a 20' Wooldridge in August. I paid 8.8 % sales tax, plus $250 for the license. I purchased the boat in Seattle. Some Cities have more or less added on to the state sales tax. I considered buying the motors in Oregon as together they were around $13,000 to save on sales tax, but decided against it.

I was glad to see that I will be able to deduct the sales tax from Federal Tax on this year's taxes.
