Is the sale of a fishing boat taxable if you reinvest the proceeds in buying another fishing boat?
Provided you paid for the orginal boat with post tax dollars, and the boat was not used in a business which declared the boat as an asset of the business, there is no tax. If the boat was used in the operation of a business, and was part of the assets, you must declare the sale on your business taxes. Otherwise there is no taxes.
What do red and green lights on a boat mean?
The red and green lights on a boat are side lights and assist in determining the direction the boat is facing. Red lights are on the port, or left side, while green lights are on the starboard, or right side. If you see only one side light, you are looking at that side of the boat. If you see both lights at the same time, that means that the boat is either headed towards you or away from you. If the red light is to the right, the boat is coming towards you (Red-Right-Returning). If the green light is to the right, the boat is going away from you.
