Ok, I will just shoot off a few questions. Please excuse my ignorance, I know very little about boats but I was walking around the Marina Del Rey area this weekend and began getting curious.
I will assume you need to register the boat, but is it more difficult if say you buy a 400' retired cruise liner and don't plan to use it commercially?
If you use a large boat such as this as your residence do you have to pay real estate tax on it.
If you plan to captain the boat yourself do you need a license to operate it.
If you own a really large boat, say 200' or longer where do you dock it at? Are there special facilities for private owners of oversized watercraft?
If you use your boat to cruise to other countries, how easy is it to find a port where you can dock? Do most countries offer this sort of thing for travelers?
I would appreciate any information you can provide for me.
