: The CT Kayak club had an etiquette sheet that we produced. Two
: things that we always try to do is

: 1. not tie up launch ramps while launching. Boat owners usually are
: the ones paying the tax and registration and as kayakers we
: should try to get our acts together and launch quickly.

This would depend on the state. In MN, we pay for a license on canoes and kayaks just the same as power boaters and sailors. I'd venture to say that paddlers probably pay more on average, because of owning multiple canoes or kayaks. Minnesota has the most boats per capita out of any states, so I imagine it's big revenue for the state.
