Well , what i have is more a question than a thought . Where I live one does not have to register their boat as long as it is propelled by paddle , oar , or any manual mode . But - add a sail and you have to register the boat . Something I prefer to avoid , if possible . Assuming some other areas may have similar rules - have you found you get a pass using an umbrella as a sail or do you get the thicket and some stern talk about the virtues of obeying the law ?
