Would it qualify as an Investment - "Second Home" or "Land" - is there a difference?

A boat slip would not fall under any regular investment classification. You may enter it as "Everything Else". Note that any gain or loss would be reported as Long-Term or Short-Term Capital Gain/Loss and taxed as such.

How for you report the gain on the sale of a boat?

assuming you did not get a 1099 form and this is not a business asset

 

since you're using Windows desktop version, you can use forms mode. type Capital Asset Sales in the search box. double click on the worksheet form. enter 1 in the box then click on next. for the name of the broker enter "NONE" click on finish. enter a description, date sold and acquired, sales price and cost. check the box  "no" for basis reported to IRS and "also "no" for sale reported to IRS

If this was a personal use boat (not business or investment use) then you only report the sale if you got a 1099 or you made a profit ... losses on personal use items is not deductible.
