Stop proposed registration fees on non-motorized boats in Florida
The Issue
Non-motorized boats have little to no environmental impact that a registration fee would be used to alleviate. Personally I have rarely used boat ramps and have no need of channel markers or any other state provided resource. I believe there are many residents who choose non-motorized boats to enjoy Florida waters because motorboats and gas with trailer and registration are unaffordable. Adding registration fees to non-motorized boats seems to be another effort to wring more money from Florida residents.
