Yacht

Primm was involved in a tax dispute regarding his 145-foot power yacht, the Prima Donna, which is kept in Newport Beach, California. The dispute was settled by the Orange County Tax Assessor's office, which ruled that the yacht was not in the slip at Newport Beach enough days per year to warrant the collection of taxes.[3]
