Another Tax Problem

General Boats and Motors

I saw the post about the guy moving out of state and still owing taxes. My situation is different.
I sold my boat in Sept 2014, completed the disposal form and begrudgedly paid 2014 taxes (in arrears). I don’t think I received a tax bill for this year(2015) but Greenwood County site shows I owe them 2015 taxes. I verified via scdnr website that the boat/motor are registered to someone in Lexington, which is where the guy lived that I sold it to. I assume he registered it in 2014. My understanding is that Greenwood uses the DNR registration to tax me, pretty sure I had that discussion with the tax office at the time of sale. Anyone have a clue what I’m in for tomorrow as I try to figure this out, and get out of taxes I shouldn’t owe?

I told them that it had been sold in September 2014 and I had submitted the Disposal Form to DNR back then. They looked something up on the DNR site and then they “took care of it”.

That’s not a “win” is it? The govt still got me on all my other belongings.
