1388.0. "Help on Vt. boat laws." by SLUGER::KERSCH () Wed Apr 18 1990 13:05

    
    	 I have set up a annual fishing trip with my buddys to
    	Vermont. I was wondering if anyone could fill us in on
    	the laws about boats and motors. We will be staying at
    	a camp just north of Mt Snow and will be fishing a few 
    	ponds up on the mountain northwest of there (Branch pond,
    	Beebe Pond and maybe a few others). Also we were interested
    	in the Somerset res. Any info on the rules as to motors
    	and size allowed would be helpful. Also does Vermont
    	accept Mass registration or are they like New Hampshire and
    	make you spend more money and plaster your boat with another
    	sticker?

    	P.S. We will be going up Memorial Day weekend.

    Vermont boat registration is reciprocal with all other states. 
    
    As far as boating laws, I'd assume that were similar to your state's,
    if in doubt obtain a copy of the VT laws from VT.  
    
    As for motor restrictions, sure it's possible that some of those ponds 
    have hp restrictions.  Again, since nobody in here with any first hand
    knowledge has responded you'll have to contact the state.
    
    good luck, don mac
