BCarlson, when I bought my new H16 in 06', I bought it in Iowa which has a 6% sales tax, we had a 6.5% sales tax at the time. The frickin' Minnesota DNR wanted me to kick in that .5% difference to the state of Minnesota. That pissed me off, and I would not have registered that boat either, but I had a loan on it, and needed to get a title. So I paid those m.f.er's their $37 that they thought I owed them. If it had an engine I'd understand. What I don't understand is why the **** wasn't pulling over one of the at least 500 powerboats that were hauling butt up and down the Mississippi, instead of screwing with the sailboat that was barely moving.


Karl, we all make choices and we have to live the with consequences of those choices. You chose not to register you boat and eventually got caught 3 years later. That was a risk you evidently were willing to take when you decided not to follow the law and properly register you boat, so don't be upset with the Minnesota DNR for enforcing a law that you willingly broke.

I'm always amazed when someone gets caught doing something wrong and they try come off as the victim by making remarks like: "What I don't understand is why the **** wasn't pulling over one of the at least 500 powerboats that were hauling butt up and down the Mississippi, instead of screwing with the sailboat that was barely moving."
