Perfect timing on your question. About two hours ago, my wife opened our mail and found two bills from the Sarasota County Tax Collector.
$129 for our boat and $10.50 for our dinghy. The bill is labeled "Registration Renewal". The odd thing is, we reside in NC and the boat is documented with a NC address. However, to enjoy the beautiful water of Florida (on our way to the Bahamas) we need a Florida registration.
So, the answer to your question is YES, I am taxed for entering Florida with a NC boat.
