Default Licensing alternative

Oh,, you mean like the roads in the USA,,, is that the kind of environment
you are talking about?

Drunk drivers, people who have no licenses, illegals driving all over and
they don't care it they kill you ..no insurance in Mexico..

And you want to bring that to the local ocean?

Are you F'n nuts?

A fee isn't a tax? Sure,,, no, it is a fee. Are you truly so nuts as
this?

The reason we, me, us, go sailing is to get away from authority. To be
FREE. Let the wind drive us forward, the sea our friend ....

But that isn't good enough for you ,, nope. You want to ruin sailing.



Actually good sensible sailors want & need some kind of minimal protection
from irresponsible, don't tell me what to do, type of boaters. Without
rules and regulations and an authority to enforce same, chaos would take
over.
Not the type of environment I'd want to take my family sailing in.
