| Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows: |
|
| | Sec. 1. 12 MRSA §7791, sub-§14, as enacted by PL 1979, c. 420, §1, is | amended to read: |
|
| | 14. Watercraft. "Watercraft" means any type of vessel, boat, | canoe or craft capable of being used as a means of transportation | on water, other than a seaplane, including motors, electronic and | mechanical equipment and other machinery, whether permanently or | temporarily attached, and which are customarily used in the | operations of the watercraft. "Watercraft" does not include a | vessel, boat, canoe or craft located and intended to be | permanently docked in one location and not used as a means of | transportation on water. |
|
| | This bill amends the definition of "watercraft" in the laws | governing inland fisheries and wildlife to specifically exclude | watercraft that are permanently docked in one location and are | not used as a means of transportation on water. |
