I may be wrong but I would imagine the issue will be
import duties. For any non-US citizen they can legally avoid the 6% sales tax if they leave Florida waters within 90 days and do not return within 6 months. If a US citizen/resident buys the boat they will have to pay the 6% sales tax in Florida.
Whether or not one can legally avoid any
import duties by say, transacting a certain distance
offshore is another issue. Best contact the authorities in Florida to find out the exact situation.
