Not sure whether this has been covered but I certainly think I forgot to mention that a friend of mine with a "deemed VAT paid" boat went through the process of working out how to prove that VAT status. After a little calling around it turned out that a quick call to HMRC they sent him an official certificate of status to carry on board. No charge and no bother, they didn't even ask for evidence of the status of the vessel, just an explanation of why it should be deemed paid.
Thought that might be useful to anyone with an older boat and certainly worth a phone call as it means paperwork is complete for selling or sailing abroad.
