Well, getting back to the topic of this thread, I can see you've had to make a decision about documentation.  It does seem very strange that "foreign ownership" would trigger WA taxes.  I realize you have a home here in WA, but the ownership by a Marshall Islands corporation should take your residence out of the equation.  I don't know what your actual plans are, but it sounds as if you are basically bringing the boat to WA to load up some items before heading back to Mexico.  Since the delivery and commissioning has run a little long, is there the possibility of not even bringing the boat up here at this point?  I think you had mentioned a summer shakedown trip to Alaska and a visit to the Poulsbo Trawler Fest, but I guess AK might be cutting it a little close now considering you'll to get back to San Diego in late October.  I would imagine you will want a several days to prep before the FUBAR.  Could you have transported any other personal items to California, stuck with the Marshall Islands registry and not even involved WA state?Dray, Patrick 2007-06-22 21:48:59
