Why can't I advertise my boat as 'Sail Away'?

You might be wondering why you cannot advertise your boat including on road costs such as stamp duty and other government charges.

‘Plus on Road Costs’ refers to the stamp duty and transfer fees the buyer needs to pay the state transport authority when they purchase the boat.

These are fees a private seller is not responsible for, thus, cannot offer the vehicle as sail away.
