No property tax, but you'd have to pay moorage and hookup fees somewhere. But hey, you could populate it with a half-dozen mobile homes and make yourself quite the trailer-park mansion!

I grew up on a river in nova scotia right across from where a cable ferry docked. Yes, the cable has enough slack to sink down, and its frigging huge.
Every couple of years, the cable would snap and the ferry would end up floating down the river somewhere. Always good for a local laugh.
