Another grey area is what is "use in WA state waters"? Is the clock running on a dry stored boat, while it is dry stored? Nobody seems to know. Actually the statue says something like "60 days after entering the waters of the state of WA" which is unclearer still. Suppose you keep a boat on a trailer. You bring it into Washington and put it in the water one day a year. Do you get 60 years? or owe tax 60 days after the first splash? The documentation company in Anacortes told me the latter. Suppose I bring a boat in on a trailer and store it for a year before it gets wet. Do I owe taxes within 60 days? or not until 60 days after it gets wet? Does rain count as the "waters of WA state"?
