I am in the process of buying a Qld registered, second-hand boat and was wondering if I have to pay duty on the boat.
Qld transport website says that "All trailers and drawn equipment are exempt."
Does a boat count as drawn equipment or is that just the trailer?

In february when I bought the seafarer and transfered the rego of both boat and trailer to me, there was no "stamp Duty" but I did have to pay an $18.50 processing fee on each one to transfer the rego's
