It would be hard to enforce a gas tax on small boats since people usually just bring the gas to the boat in cans. You really can't tell whether I am buying "boat gas" or gas for my lawn mower. Hey, I am in favor of any nearly rational system that makes "excessive use" of dwindling natural resources *very* expensive for the offenders, and I've already voted: any individual's boat that can burn 100+ gallons an hour is, by definition, "excessive use." We're either going to take energy conservation seriously, or we're going to run out of oil sooner rather than later. The thing I find crazy...every year the outboard manufacturers bring out a bigger & more powerful engine. When will it ever stop? |
