DMV WILL know the difference they will charge you RETAIL BOOK VALUE. They did it to me twice with boats. They will send you an amended tax bill in the mail and you will have to appeal it. So pay with certified check and cash, Send the copy of the check to DMV and they might accept it as truth or not. I'm 1-1 in this arguement. They also do this with trucks and cars as well. They have to pay for shaniqua and her 6 kids.

they use bill of sale only. i know because i did it last august.
to be honest, a kbb or blue book doesnt really exist for boats. the price window for boats is so wide that its imposible to track. i.e. i used one book value for my boat to see what kind of deal i was getting. it varied from 45k to almost 80k. not very reliable info. i just went off the market value of what people we asking for them.

Edit: at least the ones that go by 'book value' do anyway.

I really cant answer that question, They are still trying to figure out how things are going to work!
I will stay in touch with them and pose some of these questions for you guys and try to get solid answers but I dont want to throw up any plags and have them LOOK INTO ANYTHING they wouldnt have.
I would guess based on how cars work that book value will be the way its going to go now that they have Tax money at stake and need the funds.
Typical state Government shooting them slevs in the foot with this tax crap. you know how many people will process Ct sales out of state, there will be out of state services making money off this just like there is for cars.
