The OP asked what are the tax rates in Washington State.

Sales tax is from a bit less than 9% to a bit over 9% depending on what county the purchase was made. King county where Seattle is, has the highest rate in the state.

The state charges an annual excise tax on boats, whether documented or not, based on its current value of 1/2% due in June. Sounds like this is a lot less than CA charges.
