Important Reminders for Watercraft Permits
- - State registrations must be renewed annually.
- - Any new watercraft - or watercraft that have undergone mechanical changes by adding a new or modified motor - must be inspected by a lake warden before a permit is issued.
- - Inspections take place at the wardens' office and cannot be performed on the water.
- - Inspections will cover necessary checks for horsepower and motor restrictions, as well as equipment required by state law to be on board.
