Sec. III-40. 12 MRSA '13056-A is enacted to read:

'13056-A.__Nonmotorized watercraft conservation sticker

1.__Sticker required; fees.__Except motorboats subject to
section 13056 or as otherwise provided in this section, a person
may not place or operate a sailboat, rowboat, canoe or kayak on
the inland waters or territorial waters of the State, unless a
conservation sticker issued under this section is affixed to the
watercraft._

  Great!!! now my  sleek beautiful kevlar kayak can look like road trip to 
Disney world with stickers "affixed" here and more stickers "affixed" there!

The reality is that  we pay for it one way or another- either through some 
sort of "tax" in one lump sum or we get nickeled and dimed to death at 
every intersection.  I prefer the former.
