Tom, You might be looking at $400 a year, not $400 when you sell.
Hope not.

YUP, for sure
Maybe some of those state officials are actually boaters.

Definitely some are. I wrote letters to my three congressfolks asking them to oppose the tax increase on boats. Reps Leavitt and Bronoske replied quickly, said they opposed the tax, and were working to get the provision removed. Sometimes the response is that they support things, but understand my concern. I didn't get anything from Sen Nobles for a while, and after it was removed, I got a letter simply stating that the provision had been removed. No indication she was for or against, which seems a little disingenuous, but well...that's politics, I guess. Clearly the special tax on watercraft hit some nerves, and got a lot of people voicing opposition, because all three of these folks pretty much support new taxes or tax increases on just about anything.
On another boating matter that seems like it might be a little political as well as scientific, a WDFW research vessel (contracted purse seiner) was working through the Nisqually Reach and Oro Bay today, probably seining for Dungeness zoea, which move suspended in currents and tides. I hope they find lots, but since I didn't see any Dungeness in research traps taken in Oro Bay (maybe there were some because I saw them at a distance), I'm a little skeptical. I'll ask. Since eliminating the take of all crabs in S Puget Sound for 3 years hasn't seemed to work, maybe it is time to have a season on Red Rock only, which are abundant. We'll see, but maybe we should be writing to ask for this as well? |
