Montana's proposed registration makes Minnesota's current law look quite reasonable. For one thing, in Minnesota the fee is prorated by length, so it is cheaper for most canoes and kayaks than it is for large powerboats (I think 19 feet is the point at which the fee goes up). And I think the current fee for canoes and kayaks in Minnesota is a little cheaper than that proposed for Montana -- about $15-$17 for three years, as I recall. I think the lower cutoff, below which no registration is required, is 12 feet, which automatically exempts most WW kayaks.
