I had the exact same thing happen to me. I sold my old Mako19 to a guy on this board and years later had a nightmare trying to get Hingham to tak me off the excise tax list. I had no sales tax no anything. Talking to the town did not help.
In order to get it straightened out, I had to go to the offce here where I register my current boat hare in Hyannis and and they did a search for my old registration. From that they got the hull and motor number and searched them in the database. As I ahd thought the boat was registered in RI so it was never in the databose in a way that the town knew there was a new owner. Once I had this proof it was a simple few forms and the ssue went away.
