How many of my 20 use-tax days are left?

A visiting boat on which Florida sales or use tax has not been paid is exempt from use tax if it enters and remains in the state for no more than 20 days in a calendar year, counted from the date of first dockage or slippage at a registered facility. Time in a registered repair facility with documented work is tolled.
