Texas is proposing to do so, and those of us > affected are gearing up to fight it. > I can tell you that Virginia does not register or tax anything "human powered", but, as soon as you do something like attach a trolling motor to a canoe, then you have to have the canoe registered, and you pay for that registration (don't know the exact amount - might be on a scale based on several factors like size and approximate value, etc). Then, because it's registered, you get a personal property tax for boats on it. Again, as long as it stays human powered, no registration and no tax.
