THAT'S CHEAP! Come down here to Florida and pay what we pay and you'll be thanking them for keeping the prices so low. I was paying almost $80 3 years ago down here for a 20 footer, and i know they have went up again since. In 08 they voted down the property tax increase to cover the budget deficit, so a senator got the bright idea lets double boat registration to make up what they couldn't get in taxes. And since owning a boat is a luxury it went through without any votes. A 40 footer down here will set you back over $400 a year. And used to be if you had a coast guard registered vessel you didn't have to pay a state registration fee, not anymore. They charge you regardless of where it is registered. if it stays here for over 4 months I think it is, you have to pay a annual registration fee. It used to be cheap to have a boat down here, but not anymore.
