They hate us. Now I wish I hadn't whacked off the tips of my kayaks.

Kill the fun in everyone.
I bet they pull the wings off of dragon flies too.

My thoughts may be a bit different (charge them more until they learn rules), these things constantly clog up the boat ramps. The Subaru crowd backs down the ramp, proceeds to inflate their SUP or whatever they have, then attach all their gadgets to it, go park their car, have a good long conversation with whoever will listen (especially the person who will be paddling next to them all day), then finally set out on the water. Only to return a little later to lay everything on the dock to hang out in the sun all day, blocking as much access as possible.

There's a lot of young folk who wish the same thing..... but now it's too late!

You ALWAYS have to read between the lines with these A-holes....

"Right now, the permit is required for non-motorized boats 10 feet and longer. All the bill does is remove the length requirement. Tubes currently aren't the focus of the permit requirement, nor will they be," Massey said.

Allow me to translate that for y'all.


"We passed a law to enable a money grab for our non-existent BS. We pushed too far, too fast and got sand kicked in our face.

Since we're a pack of lying, mealy-mouthed, feckless pu$$ies who get to determine what the law means whatever we want, whenever we want, we'll roll this back for now until everyone forgets about it. Then we'll ease it back in (figuratively and literally) incrementally (of course "just the tip" at first).... say maybe a $5 per year "river pass".... then crank it up bit by bit."

I'll bet it will cost them more to process these permits and payments than they will raise by nickle and diming rafters and others.

It's very PROGRESSIVE

Does anyone ever get tired of complaining? How about you do something about it instead of flapping them gums

Or just ignore it and live life.

Ya but they created 6+ high paying jobs for their friends and family......

That was probably the whole point in the first place.

I just told the governor what I thought of her. How about writing her after complaining here. I know it probably won't help but the squeeky wheel gets the grease. My 9' kayaks won't be getting any more use!

Better to fix that part than give more power to tax something we already pay taxes to maintain.
