I believe it is $125...

Kansas goes by where the boat is Jan. 1 for taxes. All kansas would care about is if you payed some state the taxes.I only register boats in Mo. since Ks. taxes are unreal on boats.

I got the "love letter" from Ohio Department of Taxation two years later. Original sales tax plus interest. They could have charged me a huge fine/penalty but declined with immediate cash payment.

If you document a boat you do not pay sales tax. It is one of the major advantages.
