Right now, we only have to pay for license fees if the paddle craft is over 16 feet in length OR, if one attaches any kind of motor to the paddle craft to include a trolling motor.

However, the powers in charge (state) are trying to implement a yearly fee on all paddle craft.

But $40!???

DANG! How many kayak/canoe launch sites will you all be getting out of that money. Or will those funds go to building more/bigger/better boat ramps for motorized craft!?

Band together and question at length the future "trail" of those funds.
