FLEX ROD Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Long time no post, just life being crazy. I finally found a boat that I like and the price was not totally crazy. 20'5 Glastron fish and ski with a Volvo 5.0 and a 70lbs electric. My question is about paying HST, the owner will give me a receipt do I have to pay the tax on the whole thing or can I ask him for 2 receipts and pay tax just on the trailer? Any advice on how to save some money here is greatly appreciated as I am spending $24k on the package. Thank you, FLEX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaspumper Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 2 receipts one for trailer and one for boat, they will bill you 3-4 yrs down the Rd for tax on the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLEX ROD Posted March 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 Thanks for your reply, I read that you can do 3 receipts, 1 for the boat 1 for the trailer and 1 for the motor so you only pay tax on boat and trailer? Any thoughts, Thanks FLEX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTHM Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 That is how it is done, 3 receipts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrowMan Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) I assume this is a I/O sterndrive motor, not an outboard ? Just curious if you can seperate it out for tax purposes ? Edited March 20, 2023 by CrowMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKRISONER Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 just throwing it out there, I never paid the tax on my 98 skeeter, i registered it with the feds, did the trailer with the province and as far as I was concerned I had gone fully legit. No one ever sent me anything saying otherwise. Different story when I imported one from the states, I had to pay everything up front at the border. Also, when I went to service ontario to do the trailer I think I told them the trailer was worth $1,000 the lady at the desk was basically like, what do you want to say this trailer costs? I probably could have told her $10 she didnt seem to care at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
