After a long fought battle, the state of Maryland passed Senate Bill 90, which caps the boat excise tax at $15,000, hence boosting Maryland's marine industry's ability to grow and thrive in our region.
Marine Trades Association of Maryland, known as MTAM's executive director Susan Zellers says,"I am so happy we will have this opportunity to increase the number of boats that are registering in Maryland. This bill will lead to more jobs and services in the marine industry, and that’s good for all boaters. Start getting the word out now….
Come to the Chesapeake--we are a tax friendly state for boaters."
