Findings Of Fact On July 8, 1983, Petitioner, B & D International Yacht Charters, Ltd., a California corporation, purchased the 96-foot motor yacht, Realite, from Broward Marine, Inc., 1601 Southwest 20th Street, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for the sum of $2,495,787.02. Petitioner paid no Florida sales tax on the purchase of the Realite. On October 14 and 16, 1983, the Realite was observed operating in the State of Florida. On January 24, 1985, the Department issued a "Notice of Delinquent Tax, Penalty and Interest Due and Assessed," against Petitioner, on the purchase of the Realite. The Department's assessment claimed (1) Florida State Sales/Use Tax of 5% ($124,789.35), (2) a penalty of 5% per month, up to a maximum of 25% of the tax due ($31,197.34), (3) the statutory penalty of, 100% of the tax due ($124,789.35), and (4) interest on the tax due at the rate of 1% per month from the date of purchase. Petitioner, pursuant to Section 72.011, Florida Statutes, initiated a proceeding under Section 120.57, Florida Statutes, to contest the Department's assessment. Petitioner alleged it was not liable for the use tax because the Realite had been purchased in Nassau, Bahamas, and that her presence in the State of Florida, in October 1983, was for the sole purpose of having warranty repair work done. However, Petitioner offered no evidence that the purchase of the Realite occurred in Nassau, Bahamas, or that the reason for her presence in the State of Florida, in October 1983, was for warranty repair work.
