Ahh...tax dodges... 
Nothing like NOT paying your fair share on discretionary purchases, eh? 
 
Especially when CA is running such an enormous deficit. 
 
Everybody who exploits a weird loophole, (like not bringing the new yacht 
across the state line until the 91st day) is merely transfering his portion of 
the total tax burden to somebody else- often somebody who will struggle far 
more to pay it. 
 
If we can convince our state and federal governments to curtail spending, we 
can then extend meaningful, permanent, fiscally sound tax cuts to everybody- 
not just a class of folks with enough money to buy a yacht and spend 90 days 
cruising out of state. :-) 
 
Boat owners typically rely on a host of state-funded services. Purchasers of 
larger boats aren't all that worried about launch ramps- but floats and mooring 
buoys in marine parks- (not to mention the marine parks!)- are often state 
funded. Boat owners fish for salmon and other species that only manage to 
survive because state fisheries departments regulate catch, encourage 
propagation, and slow down the environmental degradation of spawning streams 
and other aquatic infrastructure.
