Re: Stus-List Boat registration
If you purchase a boat in Nova Scotia and the government finds out about it they will send you an invoice (a letter demanding payment or proof the HST was paid on the transaction) for the HST for the transaction, 15% of the purchase price. They will ask for proof of the purchase price. I've received such a letter and paid the bill. My boat was documented, so I needed to put it in my name. I made the boat's port of registry the port where I keep the boat. There is a theory I can't attest to that if you have a documented vessel you should make it port of registry in another province, preferably one like Alberta that has no sales tax. Ken H.

Re: Stus-List Boat registration
all boats purchased by NS people are supposed to pay 15% HST on purchase. If bringing from US you pay it at the border. The big thing is to ensure you have all your papers and if you bought the boat for a really low price be prepared to justify the price to the customs people as they may challenge it and charge you tax based on what they believe the boat to be worth The other thing is if a boat is on a trailer when you buy it bringing the trailer across the border my be a hassle where the boat is not.

Re: Stus-List Boat registration
Yes it does :-) Here in Quebec there used to be 2/3 kinds: registered boat ( licence ) which requires you to have the boat number on the bow, depending of the area it starts with 10D 15D 20D and so on Many boats which were bought in the US and for which teh owner will sail on a US lake can have an in bound number which were easiily identified with the B suffix at the end of the number ( ex: 10D 123456 B ), one could have the right to take his boat back in Canada for a period of 6 months, every year ( officially for maintenance purpose ). This allowed ownser to avoid paying taxes and duties . I don't know if this still valid. The other way is to have a Blue Book which means it is registered by Transport CAnada, in this case you don't need the number, just the ( unique ) name of your boat. I think it is mandatory if one wants to have a mortgage to buy a boat ( instead of a loan ) Sylvain CC27MkIII From: Knowles Rich r...@sailpower.ca To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com cnc-list@cnc-list.com Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 3:10 PM Subject: Re: Stus-List Boat registration It does get confusing:) Rich Knowles Indigo.

It was free and it seemed like a good idea so I did it and put the registration numbers for either side of the bow as per instructions. As a result of that and about 2 years later but 6 years after I had actually purchased the boat, the NS government came looking for proof of taxes paid. The papers I got from the broker were very useful, thankfully I had saved them, they showed that the government had received the tax money but I still had to prove it 6 years later. Save all of the documents that you get. Dwight Veinot CC 35 MKII, Alianna Head of St. Margaret's Bay, NS From:CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Dr. Mark Bodnar Sent: March 20, 2013 3:03 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List Boat registration Thanks for all the info on the possible CC30 purchase. One of the responses brought up an unconsidered issue - maybe the others in Nova Scotia and Canada can comment. I got a price on shipping the boat back - initial estimate is ~$5000 plus getting it on and off the trailer (Sealand). Estimate from a professional captain is ~$3000 to sail it back for me. Or I could sail it back myself (which sound like an adventure, provided all goes smoothly!!!) -- So if I go ahead more likely Bob Hickson raised the issue of getting a boat registered. I had not really thought about it. I didn't do anything to register or transfer ownership of my current Mirage 24 (but it only has an 8Hp outboard), nor did I register a 16 ft bowrider I bought and sold several years back. I don't recall seeing boats around the club with the typical license codes on the bow (I do recall that from Ontario ) Looking online - I can't find anything specific with Nova Scotia - but Transport Canada (http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/mediaroom/backgrounders-b04-m055e-1329.htm) says Licensing and registration All pleasure craft, which are principally maintained and operated in Canada and powered by one or more motors adding up to 7.5 kW (10 hp) or more must be either licensed or registered. and Note: You must display your pleasure craft licence number: · above the waterline; · on both sides of the bow; · in block characters not less than 7.5 centimetres (3 inches) high; and · in a contrasting colour to the vessel colour. Maybe I've just been ignoring
