>Hello Fellow Cruisers:

>I have some really GOOD news for the cruising community!!!

>We have just posted a note on the Salty Southeast Cruisers' Net's "South
>Carolina" page, concerning a very beneficial change for all cruisers in
>South Carolina's property/boat tax law. This vital info was passed to us
>by way of Susie Watkins, harbormaster at Harbour Gate Marina in North
>Myrtle Beach, SC, Statute Mile 347 (A SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS' NET
>SPONSOR). Those of you who have been following the cruising news on the
>Nets' "South Carolina" page since last fall, already know that in 2007
>South Carolina made what was, for the cruising community, a disastrous
>change in the state's property tax law. Suddenly, boat owners who kept
>their vessels in South Carolina waters for as little as 60 days could be
>subject to some prodigious property taxes on their vessel. Now, it appears
>as if the law is going to be amended, resulting in a return to a 180 day
>grace period before vessels residing in South Carolina waters would be
>subject to property tax.
