[Rhodes22-list] Buying a Rhodes/Dan, Tom, taxes

[elle]

Tom,

You may not have been affected by this ruling as you
are military...but MD has an unusual taxing structure
on boats....I'm not real familiar with the details but
I had a friend who tussled with MD as MD did not
recognize the taxes he had paid on his 37' ...I can
get the full story if Dan or anyone is interested..
