Boat registration

[spooner_jr]

You can have a separate bill for the trailer, which you use to pay tax on at the MOT. When you register the boat, give them the legitimate bill for the boat and motor, they don't ask for any tax (although with HST, not sure anymore). If they ask for proof later, pay it then. In the past they have been pretty lax about collecting, as the Fed gov't was responsible for registering the boat, but the provincial government was the only one collecting the tax, so the fed dept had to notify the prov dept that tax was due, and it didn't always happen.

AS for the insurance company; if you have a loss, show them both receipts.
