Default Gas Tax

Quote:
Tis, on gas tax, guessing the record keeping in NH, they would have to go through each quarters tax payment by hand and decide from the company name if the gas was marine or road use. It might be easier to track requests for gas tax rebates, but a lot of boaters don't file for them.

Overall, gas data might not be that usefull. Because of the huge increase in PWCs over the last ten years, I'd bet the gas usage has gone down dramatically. Plus many outboards are now efficient four-strokes and many larger boats have fuel injection.
I believe that Marina gas might not be subject to the road usage tax from the federal government, someone would have to folow up on this one, but i believe it does not so you would be able to decipher that way
