Anybody know of a way to get back the road/highway use tax on gas used in a boat. Figure it’s not used on the road so why pay the tax. I know farmers can get the tax back on ag gas because it’s used off road.
I get the gas tax back on my lawnmowers for business too. Not sure how you would get it on the boat.

Just tell your tax man you want to take it. You have to keep the receipts though.
moreyes, that’s why its called petroleum jelly
Correct Tuck.
Ask your tax man. However, I don’t know if you can get a discount on recreational use or not.
Farmers get a discount/write off because it is business use. Generally, they purchase their fuel this way in the first place.
Maybe true…but guiding and tournament fishing would be different.
Depends if you are wanting to know about Federal or State taxes. The Federal refund is only available if the gas is used in business equipment. Recreational use does not qualify. Claim the refund with Federal Form 4136.
For state tax refunds, each state could be different. In Nebraska, off road use is off road use. Recreational use does qualify…however, there are other requirements that you must meet. I could try to help find the information for you if you let me know which state you are in.
