You can rent a mooring -- isn't the issue the number of days in Mass waters?

Taxachusetts Boat Excise Tax question
Many states have a "time spent in the state or state waters" provision that results in a charge.
Yes, in CT and NY it's 60 days (per year)
How about that? Repealed in 1993
Likely the intent was to boost the boating industry
where is your "offical" residence address?
A quick search on MA state web sites shows...
Registration, no; excise, yes.
In CT a documented boat still must be registered with CT
Same in Oregon.

Looks like if you have a mooring permit in your name, ya gotta pay excise tax to that town.
