From: Victoria LOdge < >In Pennsylvania, there is a rule that says to use State waters, you have to >get a boat licence, no matter what kind of boat you have. I think it's >about $10 per boat (Glenn?) but I don't remember for sure. If you're >paddling on private waters you don't have to have it. As in another message, no, it is not a license it is registration. For Each Boat!!! I would have been happier if it had been a license... probably cheaper because it would be me rather than the boats that would have been registered (and paid for). PAF&B has various rationalizations why this should be so. Only PAF&B believes them. It's $10 for two years. Initially there could be a $2 handling fee if you go through a county court or directly with the Commission. BEWARE!!! F&B allows their agents, e.g. boat marinas and supply stores, to charge a handlling fee but do not limit it in any way. I have heard of people paying up to $25 for this,,,, JP *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Wed Sep 27 2000 - 17:34:33 PDT
