I'm sorry but is he complaining about paying $0.08 per foot of vessel? so they have to collect an additional $8.00 on a hundred foot boat? And then he says the 200 foot yacht will be paying $35,000 to register in the Bahamas? really? That 200 foot yacht is valued at around $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 and would be extremely higher rates for registration in other countries? These marina guys can't be serious right? Marinas are cash cows making a mint. hence why the govt is looking for some more revenue from them. If these wealthy yacht owners want to hang elsewhere it really doesn't bother me. No where is better to be than the Bahamas. if they want to play here they have to pay here.

too true too true. one ring to rule them all or something like that

Can we tax marijuana yet? Or is it too soon? asking for a friend.

Considering the significant amount of money that the Bahamas Government steals from the general population of the form of so called "taxes" it continually puzzles me why they always need to borrow more. How much does the 'collective we' owe so far? How much is annual govt revenue again? how many useless civil servants get free lunch everyday? asking for a friend.

Shady shady

is this is a form of social assistance or is it an actual job expected to be done with actual work happening? asking for a friend.

WOW

Until it is explained to me how I personally benefit and how the country as a whole benefits from this I am categorically unequivocally opposed to giving away one of the most valuable pieces of publically owned beachfront land to foreigners. change my mind. only the 3 people getting handsome and handsomer under the table benefits are for it. again change my mind.
