Yeah, Kerry only saved about half a million in sales tax by registering it in RI and also doesn't pay any yearly excise tax by keeping it there.

Hit New England Boatworks, the old Hood yard next door, both in Portsmouth and Newport Shipyard.

Nobody is paying their "fair share".

RI being a "tax haven" for yachts has saved the industry down there.
efem all?
Nah, just people not involved in yachts/race boats.

And Kerry did cut a check for a cool half mil to the state of MA after all the whining.

But thats not very interesting is it?

State of MA would get way more money going after John Henry for his foreign flagged beast.
Where's the whining there?

Nah, not on Kerry's boat, not fast enough.
