I really can’t see where he violated even the spirit of any sales / excise tax laws in Mass. It is very common to berth yachts in other states, especially on the East coast.

And especially if the boat will be chartered, as this one will.

My biggest complaint is that it is one but-ugly boat.

Per Fox News:

Fox News political editor Joe Battenfeld then noted that Kerry’s yacht, which he bought in March, had been spotted in Nantucket, Mass., where the senator summers with his wife Teresa Heinz. That would make Kerry liable for the sales tax.

He fully intended to pay the taxes - AFTER HE WAS CAUGHT CHEATING THE SYSTEM.

Yes, we should be reasonable there was no violation of law..

a google News search shows "Results 1 – 100 of about 965 for john kerry tax". I betcha the state controlled American media (SCAM) would put 10,000 legs on that story if it was about a Republican.

Let the media's 1960s Marxist-Alinsky street/campus revolutionary rabble and their ideological issue first show that they can be reasonable.. they cannot. They play by Alinsky's Rules For Spoiled Brats.
