Part of the problem in this country is that people are trying to live beyond there means.... if you can't afford the taxes on something and by it legally then guess what you can't afford it.....

Just do things legally people then you don't have to worry.....
Are you directing this towards me or too the guy in the article?

People seem quick to want to throw other people's money away but when it comes time for them to pay it's a different story. In your own post, you confess to being a non-resident and never having paid your state sales tax on your boat but then tell people they can't afford something because they want to avoid state sales taxes where possible? Hello pot, meet kettle.

If my boat was purchased in NH, stays in NH, and is registered in NH (as legally required to stay in Marina for summer), I certainly don't think Maine should get one penny from my boat.

Aren't you the one who wants to bring a sales and income tax to NH?
