Both had basically a 6 percent drop. They are a little different but the city need should depreciate them at slightly different rates. Im no expert but a flat dollar value wouldn’t really make sense.
I keep getting a tax bill for 17 bucks on a motor I sold 5 years ago. Have called “the guy” and gone in person to the office and keep getting told all is fixed. Sold it as a pair, the other one is registered.
I’ve sent a change of address twice to DNR and never have receive updated docs with a new address. Feel like I just mailed junk into a black hole. This results in a tax bill from Aiken Co. still since DNR is where they get the tax info/address for for boats and motors.
I got a bill from the county I live in for “delinquent taxes” on a motor I sold in 2007. Not once from then until now have I ever received a tax notice until now. Now they want a bill of sale. Why would I have that now?

I called the chas county tax people. the woman was very nice. and helpful.
they said our state has a law that BOAT depreciation is 5 % a year, they say chas county allows another 1% for a total go 6% so you can buy a 50,000 yugo boat with 4 force 300 motors and even if the street value tanks to 50% , then that first year it will be worth only 6% less. cause thats the law. as explained to me.
she suggested we contact our state legislators.
If true its not fair to boat owners, but just another way to get tax money.

she suggested we contact our state legislators as only they could change it.

you would think some boating organization or boat dealers association would take that on.
