You pay the sales tax rate for the county / city where the sales took place. I.E. Anacortes is 8.7% Seatttle is 10.1% or a savings or roughly a $11k savings. It doesn't mater where you reside or moor the boat only where the business that made the sales is located... Hence many Seattle based boat dealers have offices in Anacortes. I think that for purchases made out of state where no sales tax is paid, the tax is called a use tax and is equal to the sales tax of that local area...
