Craig:

Up until this year I have used only my driver's license in driving to
and from Georgian Bay, crossing at Sault St. Marie.  No hassles.

I have not yet made the trip this year but I intend to use the license
again, although I will probably pack my passport just in case.

For many years I have been carrying a kayak on the roof of my car back
and forth and I have never had a question about it, except from one
friendly Canadian who wanted to know where I paddled.  I used to keep
ownership information and registration papers for the kayaks with me,
but I was never asked.  These days, the only boat I bring back and forth
in my skin-on-frame and I am waiting to get a question on registration
or use tax for that one . . . .
